Krátký popis
''The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it.''When
Dorian Gray has his portrait painted, he is captivated by his own
beauty. Tempted by his world-weary, decadent friend Lord Henry
Wotton, he wishes to stay forever young, and pledges his very soul
to keep his good looks. Set in fin-de-siécle London, the novel
traces a path from the studio of painter Basil Hallward to the
opium dens of the East End. As Dorian''s slide into crime and
cruelty progresses he stays magically youthful, while his beautiful
portrait changes, revealing the hideous corruption of moral
decay.Ever since its first publication in 1890 Wilde''s only novel
has remained the subject of critical controversy. Acclaimed by some
as an instructive moral tale, it has been denounced by others for
its implicit immorality. Combining elements of the supernatural,
aestheticism, and the Gothic, The Picture of Dorian Gray is an
unclassifiable and uniquely unsettling work of fiction. ABOUT THE
SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World''s Classics has made
available the widest range of literature from around the globe.
Each affordable volume reflects Oxford''s commitment to
scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of
other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading
authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date
bibliographies for further study, and much more.
