The Picture of Dorian Grey

The only way to get rid of temptation is to give in to it. It seemed as if the heavens themselves had sculpted Dorian Gray from the beauty and purity of youth. Such lovely creatures cannot be vicious, for evil... intent is always reflected on faces and in glances, leaving its deep imprint over time. It is obvious to anyone who looks at Dorian Gray that he is a gentle and innocent creature: neither temptation nor time could touch him. But why do his old acquaintances avoid him? Why are they whispering behind his back? Is it envy or... fear? “The Picture of Dorian Gray” is one of the most scandalous novels of the Victorian era, destroying old foundations and opening people's eyes to the obvious ugliness of a hypocritical but ambitious society.
