About this ebook

Oscar Wilde's only novel is a dazzling and dangerous fable of beauty, vanity, and moral ruin. When the impossibly handsome young Dorian Gray idly wishes that his portrait might bear the burden of age and sin in his place, the wish is granted: Dorian stays forever youthful while the painting silently records the disfigurement of his every cruelty. Seduced by the epigrammatic philosophy of Lord Henry Wotton, Dorian sinks into a secret life of pleasure and corruption — as the hidden canvas grows ever more monstrous. Wickedly witty and unmistakably Gothic, this accessible modern edition presents Wilde's masterpiece newly typeset for today's readers.
