In London, a painter makes a portrait of Dorian Gray, a young man of extraordinary beauty. In front of the picture, Dorian makes a wish: to stay young for ever, and for the portrait to grow old in his place. Under the influence of the cynical Lord Henry, he throws himself into a life of pleasure, and each of his sins leaves a mark on the canvas. Dorian then hides the picture from everyone.
A fascinating story about beauty, evil and the price of eternal youth, sparkling with Oscar Wilde's wit.
Its witty dialogue makes it a captivating read in the language you are learning.
