The Picture of Dorian Gray

En savoir plus sur le livre

The story explores the moral decline of Dorian Gray, a young man who, fearing the loss of his beauty, wishes for his portrait to age instead of him. As he indulges in a life of vice and sin, the portrait becomes a grotesque reflection of his actions, while he remains eternally youthful. This duality highlights themes of vanity, morality, and the consequences of a hedonistic lifestyle. Through Dorian's extraordinary experiences, the novel serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of prioritizing appearance over virtue.
