Synopsis "The Picture of Dorian Gray"

A luxurious gift edition of Oscar Wilde's classic novel The Picture of Dorian Gray, presented with Wibalin binding and gold foil embossing. In this cautionary tale, the handsome Dorian Gray wishes that his portrait should age rather than himself, and then launches on a life of excess and depravity, with shocking consequences. This timeless novel about the frailty of human beauty and sensual experience and the futility of vanity remains as powerful today as when it was first published in 1891. ABOUT THE SERIES: Arcturus Ornate Classics are beautifully bound editions of iconic literary works across history. These compact, foil-embossed hardbacks are printed using deluxe ivory paper and make the perfect gift.
