By: Oscar Wilde
  • Summary

  • The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde tells the story of a young man, Dorian Gray, who becomes obsessed with his own beauty. After artist Basil Hallward paints his portrait, Dorian wishes to remain youthful forever, while the painting ages in his place. Influenced by Lord Henry Wotton's hedonistic philosophies, Dorian pursues a life of pleasure and moral corruption. Over time, his portrait becomes increasingly hideous, reflecting his inner decay. Despite attempts to reform, Dorian ultimately destroys the painting in a fit of desperation, leading to his own death. Wilde's novel explores themes of vanity, influence, and the dangers of unchecked desires. (Summary by Dream Audiobooks)
