Description for PICTURE OF DORIAN GRAY Paperback. Good clean copy with some minor shelf wear
Enthralled by his own exquisite portrait, Dorian Gray exchanges his soul for eternal youth and beauty.

Only his portrait bears the traces of his decadence. "The Picture of Dorian Gray" was a succes de scandale. Early readers were shocked by its hints at unspeakable sins, and the book was later used as evidence against Wilde at the Old Bailey in 1895.
