Más información sobre el libro

Set in the late 19th century, Oscar Wilde's only novel explores themes of beauty, morality, and the consequences of hedonism through the story of Dorian Gray, a young man whose portrait ages while he remains youthful. Initially published in a censored format, the novella sparked outrage among critics, prompting Wilde to vigorously defend his work. Despite the controversy, it has since become a celebrated classic, reflecting the complexities of art and ethics in a rapidly changing society.
