Publisher Description
Le Portrait de Dorian Gray est un roman gothique qui plonge le lecteur dans un univers sombre et fascinant. Au cœur de l'intrigue, nous retrouvons Dorian Gray, un jeune homme d'une beauté saisissante, qui fait l'objet d'une admiration sans borne. Lors d'une soirée, un peintre, Basil Hallward, réalise son portrait, une œuvre d'art qui capture toute la jeunesse et l'innocence de Dorian.
Fasciné par la beauté de son reflet, Dorian émet un vœu macabre : que le portrait vieillisse à sa place, tandis qu'il conserverait éternellement sa jeunesse.

Les traits autrefois purs et innocents se tordent et se déforment, révélant la corruption qui ronge son âme.
Le Portrait de Dorian Gray est bien plus qu'une simple histoire d'horreur. C'est une réflexion profonde sur la nature humaine, sur les conséquences de nos choix et sur le prix de l'éternelle jeunesse.

About Oscar Wilde
Oscar Wilde (1854–1900) was born in Dublin. He won scholarships to both Trinity College, Dublin, and Magdalen College, Oxford. In 1875, he began publishing poetry in literary magazines, and in 1878, he won the coveted Newdigate Prize for English poetry. He had a reputation as a flamboyant wit and man-about-town. After his marriage to Constance Lloyd in 1884, he tried to establish himself as a writer, but with little initial success. However, his three volumes of short fiction, The Happy Prince, Lord Arthur Savile’s Crime, and A House of Pomegranates, together with his only novel, The Picture of Dorian Gray, gradually won him a reputation as a modern writer with an original talent. That reputation was confirmed and enhanced by the phenomenal success of his society comedies: Lady Windermere’s Fan, A Woman of No Importance, An Ideal Husband, and The Importance of Being Earnest, all performed on London’s West End stage between 1892 and 1895. In 1895, he was convicted of engaging in homosexual acts, which were then illegal, and sentenced to two years imprisonment with hard labor. He soon declared bankruptcy, and his property was auctioned off. In 1896, he lost legal custody of his children. When his mother died that same year, his wife Constance visited him at the jail to bring him the news. It was the last time they saw each other. In the years after his release, his health deteriorated. In November 1900, he died in Paris at the age of forty-six.
