About this book

In an era marked by the clash between aestheticism and morality, "Dorian Grayn muotokuva" by Oscar Wilde delves into the complexities of beauty and the human soul. The novel explores the consequences of a life devoted to pleasure, as Dorian Gray, a strikingly handsome youth, wishes for his portrait to bear the marks of age instead of himself. This wish leads to a haunting exploration of vanity and moral decay, encapsulated in the themes of eternal youth and the duality of human nature. Ideal for students and literary enthusiasts, this provocative tale challenges readers to confront the price of indulgence and the shadows lurking behind a flawless façade. Discover how Wilde's insights resonate in today's world of superficiality and desire.
