Oscar Wilde's talented pen tells the story of one man's decline. It is a book considered the most moral of immoral stories. This work has earned its author to overcome the description of a writer and be considered almost as a philosopher. Dorian Gray in exchange for eternal youth delivers his soul and ends up being corrupted by the evil influence of his mentor. Highly recommended for readers of all times and geographies.
The fantastic richness finds its most appropriate expression in a luminous and refined style, and the paradox governs and regulates matter and word, scene and dialogue, Wilde tries to show the transfiguration that art operates on reality.

Wilde, Oscar, 1854–1900, brittisk (irländsk) författare. Wilde propagerade för konsten för dess egen skull. 1891 gav han ut den melodramatiska romanen Dorian Grays porträtt, som vill visa att konsten inte har något med moral att göra. Men det var med de sena komedierna, fulla av spirituella repliker, som Wilde slog igenom på allvar, t.ex. En idealisk äkta man (1895) och mästerverket Mister Earnest (1895).
