Publisher's Summary
The wish comes true, and Dorian soon finds that none of his wicked actions have visible consequences. Realizing that he will appear fresh and unspoiled no matter what kind of life he lives, Dorian becomes increasingly corrupt, unchecked by public opinion. Only the portrait grows degenerate and ugly, a powerful symbol of Dorian's internal ruin.
Wilde's dreamlike exploration of life without limits scandalized its late-Victorian audience and has haunted readers' imaginations for more than a hundred years.

thought provoking!!
Loved the philosophy, it takes you on an up and down journey of morals.. twists your thinking g and then turns you on your head for it.
I was occasionally lost (literally) in the musings of Dorian but I feel this would be reduced in a second reading... and not falling asleep to it!
Brilliant story - I highly recommend it!!!

Enjoyable first experience of Wilde
Enjoyable philosophical novel, master of words, very well read by Robert Vance. Has definitely given me a thirst for more Oscar Wilde.

So good I listened to it twice!
I was unfamiliar with all but the basic premise. I was very pleasantly surprised to find a fantastic gem that more than lived up to expectations. I'm sure that I will return to the book again in the future. The great performance was the icing on the cake.
