Oscar Wilde

The Picture of Dorian Gray

What if eternal youth came with a terrifying price?
In The Picture of Dorian Gray, Oscar Wilde masterfully explores the dark corners of vanity, desire, and moral decay—wrapped in dazzling prose and chilling suspense.

Set in the decadent heart of Victorian London, this philosophical novel follows the young and handsome Dorian Gray, whose portrait bears the weight of his sins while he remains outwardly untouched by time. As Dorian plunges into a life of hedonism and corruption, Wilde challenges readers to reflect on the true cost of beauty, the power of influence, and the dangerous pursuit of pleasure without consequence.

A brilliant blend of gothic horror and social satire, this timeless tale still resonates today—raising questions about identity, art, and what it truly means to live without limits.

“The Picture of Dorian Gray is a dark jewel… haunting, provocative, and utterly unforgettable.”
— The Guardian

“Oscar Wilde's only novel is a masterpiece of moral ambiguity and aesthetic elegance.”
— The New York Times

Whether you're a fan of classic literature or exploring Wilde for the first time, this edition is the perfect introduction to one of the most iconic novels of the 19th century.
