En savoir plus sur le livre

The story centers on Dorian Gray, a young man whose encounter with a hedonistic circle leads him to embrace a life of moral decay. After a portrait captures his youthful beauty, only the painting reflects his corruption while he remains eternally unblemished. Oscar Wilde delves into themes of vanity, the consequences of a life devoid of ethics, and the tension between external appearances and internal reality. This provocative narrative challenges readers to examine the true cost of unrestrained freedom and knowledge, resonating deeply even today.
