The Picture of Dorian Gray

The classic of eternal youth.

'How sad it is! I shall grow old, and horrid, and dreadful. But this picture will remain always young… If it was only the other way!'

Wilde's first and only published novel recounts the story of handsome Dorian Gray who upon having his portrait painted desires that it will age and grow ugly while he may remain eternally beautiful. The painting, which reflects each of Gray's sins and transgressions in its hideousness, haunts him until it finally becomes unbearable. In this dark tale of duplicity and mortality, Wilde creates a world where art and reality collide.

Fantastisk drama och fantastisk uppläsare!

Vad den bra, nej. Har jag nu ungefär 5 minuter efter att ha lyssnat klart på den redan glömt bort ungefär allt som inträffade, absolut. Är det dock en klassiker med en betydelse som spelar roll, ja de är det. Att inse att du inte kommer se likadan ut. Hur mycket dem alla var homosexuella mot varandra. En älskar att måla en annan människa. En blir förälskad i hur en annan ser värden. Och en annan Grey, blir förälskad i nån annan. The curse är lite random också, bara att han skär sönder tavlan som har visat honom sitt andra jag, blir han gammal och grå.

Jag kan inte rättvist beskriva bokens verken storhet eller grymhet. Att läsa den själv är ett måste. (Inläsningen är sjukt bra också.)
