The dream of possessing a portrait that ages in his place, assuming the marks that time should trace on his angelic face, becomes a paradoxical and terrible reality for Dorian Gray. However, it is not so much the traces of time that stop on the painting of that beautiful young man, but the vileness with which his soul has been stained. A soul that has reached the height of debauchery, corrupted and degraded, dragged into the abyss of turpitude and vice by cynicism and an unbridled greed for pleasures of all kinds. "The Picture of Dorian Gray" is considered the quintessential novel of decadence and aestheticism. This unabridged edition includes a profile of Oscar Wilde written by James Joyce and an introduction by Masolino D'Amico.
