Description
Wilde's protagonist trades his soul for eternal youth and watches himself decay morally while his portrait absorbs the evidence of his corruption—a meditation on vanity that's simultaneously scathing social comedy and genuine tragedy. The Picture of Dorian Gray treats beauty as a curse and ugliness as its own strange salvation.
