Dorian is a good-natured young man until he discovers the power of his own exceptional beauty. As he gradually sinks deep into a frivolous, glamorous world of selfish luxury, he apparently remains physically unchanged by the stresses of his corrupt lifestyle and untouched by age. But in a locked room, hidden behind a curtain, his portrait tells a very different story. This stylish edition is a collaboration between Vintage Classics and MADE.COM.
Oscar Wilde's only novel, The Picture of Dorian Gray, was first published in Lippincott's Monthly Magazine in 1890. He published a revised and expanded edition in 1891 in response to negative reviews which criticized the book’s immorality. Wilde became famous through the immense success of his plays such as Lady Windemere's Fan, An Ideal Husband and The Importance of Being Earnest.
