Beskrivning från Adlibris:
"This is the "Penguin English Library Edition" of "The Picture of Dorian Gray" by Oscar Wilde. 'I am jealous of everything whose beauty does not die. I am jealous of the portrait you have painted of me ...Why did you paint it? It will mock me some day - mock me horribly!'. A story of evil, debauchery and scandal, Oscar Wilde's only novel tells of Dorian Gray, a beautiful yet corrupt man. When he wishes that a perfect portrait of himself would bear the signs of ageing in his place, the picture becomes his hideous secret, as it follows Dorian's own downward spiral into cruelty and depravity. "The Picture of Dorian Gray" is a masterpiece of the evil in men's hearts, and is as controversial and alluring as Wilde himself. "The Penguin English Library" 100 editions of the best fiction in English, from the eighteenth century and the very first novels to the beginning of the First World War."

Min kommentar
Detta är en bok som handlar i stor grad om moral och etik.
Läste den på engelska och tyckte att det var ganska svårt. Boken har ett väldigt djup och det är tur att den är kort, jag vet inte om man klarar mer än så mycket av moraliska frågor och mänskligt förfall.
Om jag får tipsa om något så är filmen kanon också.
Finns hos Adlibris, Bokus och CDON.
