~ Collector’s Edition ~ Laminated Hardback with Jacket ~In a world where beauty is everything, Dorian Gray discovers the dangerous allure of eternal youth and unrestrained pleasure. Captivated by a portrait that ages in his place, he embarks on a reckless journey where indulgence and vanity become his only pursuits. As the years pass, Dorian remains unchanged, but his portrait grows darker, a chilling reflection of his hidden sins. Torn between his desire for perfection and the haunting consequences of his actions, Dorian faces a battle that threatens not only his soul but the very essence of his existence.When The Picture of Dorian Gray was first published in 1890, it challenged Victorian norms with its bold exploration of decadence, morality, and the consequences of vanity. Wilde’s novel broke from the era’s conventions, pushing boundaries on both aestheticism and the tension between outward beauty and inner corruption. Its portrayal of a man who sacrifices his soul for eternal youth sparked controversy, prompting debates about morality, art, and the nature of sin. Today, it remains a powerful critique of society’s obsession with surface beauty, making it a timeless commentary on the dark side of self-obsession.
