説明

Oscar Wilde's timeless tale delves into the complexities of beauty, morality, and the human soul. Set against the backdrop of Victorian society, it follows the poignant journey of Dorian Gray, a young man whose portrait captures his youthful beauty while he indulges in a life of hedonism and excess. As he becomes increasingly obsessed with remaining youthful and alluring, the distinctions between virtue and vice begin to blur, leading to dire consequences.

The novel explores profound themes of aestheticism and the superficial nature of society's values. Wilde's eloquent prose and sharp wit invite readers to reflect on the cost of yielding to temptation, ultimately laying bare the darkness that can reside within an apparently unblemished exterior. As Dorian's choices ripple through his life, the tension between the outward appearance and inner reality raises questions about the true essence of beauty and the human condition.
