The Picture of Dorian Gray Audiobook

" The creepy, sad, and heartbreaking tale of how a man's actions color and illustrate his soul. I would recommend it to most. "

" Gran libro, mi hanno colpito specialmente i dialoghi, ti catturano in una maniera incredibile... "

" Another from my well-read youth, this time prompted by a crush on Peter Firth, who played Dorian in a BBC adaptation. "

" It is very interesting and excellent book I heard about this book and I want to read this "

" I typically don't like reading older books, but this was pretty good. It still has a lot of seemingly superfluous information and dialogue, and could be hard to read at times, but the story itself is pretty interesting and says a lot about how we choose to live our lives. "

" The descriptions, the language, the way to get you through the story make this book an absolute classic. "

" Not as exciting and interesting as I expected, but still very good. "

" One of my favourite books. Beautifully written and a very quotable piece of literature. "

" Worth reading, although the plot can get dull at times. The thematic concepts in this book were fantastic. Would recommend with the asterisk that it may bore you. "

" This book does not need text reviews since everyone knows it, but I love it. I love every little intricate detail, and every intentional detail left out. "

" I enjoyed Sybil Vanes conversation with her brother James. "

" Dragged in the middle, but I liked it otherwise. "

" Witty, dark, gruesome, engrossing. I loved it. "

" Oscar Wilde should have written more novels. He understands rhetoric, imagery and tone unlike any other novel I have ever read. Every sentence impressed me. "

" This is one of my favorite books. I just love exploring morality through the story Wilde lays before me. I love the characters, the setting. It's an amazing book. And I see something different each time I read it. "

" One of the more haunting books from the canon that I have read. The book feels that much more relevant considering the 21st century's obsession with looks and the aesthetic ideal. "

" It is a really exciting story full of unexpected events. Loved it from the beginning to the very end. "

" A favorite book. Dark but not gruesome, didn't have to mention evil spawn or whatevs. I like that it also did not have to detail everything yet reader would have an idea of what went on. Lord Henry is absolutely a favorite character, his point of view is just amusing. "

" Parts of this book could have been cut, for instance the chapter that went on and on about the hobbies that Dorian became obsessed with. I found after a little research, that Oscar Wilde had written this as a story for a magazine, and then added material to turn it into a novel. I suspect the part that seemed dull and to drag on were the parts he added, which is too bad. Overall the plot and overall moral of the story were cleverly written. "

" I liked the picture of Dorian Grey. However, I didn't read it; it was read to me on Librevox. I'm sure that has altered my perception of it quite a bit compared to if I had read it myself. However, I did enjoy the story. It was what I thought it would be, and ended nicely. "

" The book which contains most of Oscar Wilde's greatest quotes. Can't beat that! "

" The book that made me fall in love with Oscar Wilde but in totally straight way. :P "

" despre dorain grey, kare niciodata na vrut sa fie batran, a lasat sulfetul in portretul sau, asa a trait tinar tot timpu ku suflet batran, indragostit de o fata kare sa sinucis pentru el. la urma se sinucide singur de kinul pe kare la avut "

" Surprised by this book. I didn't know what to expect from the story and it certainly didn't give away any secrets early on. Great short story with lots of humour. "

" Climax lead a lot to ponder about. "

" Reread for teaching this semester. What can I say but that I love Oscar Wilde so? "

" The plot is excellent, but what really makes this book an absolute crime to miss is Wilde's completely incomparable mastery of the English language. Beautifully written. "

" The premise is captivating and the plot is haunting. I love the poetry of Wilde's scene-setting passages. I find his epigrams (here from the character of Lord Henry) to be quickly tiresome. But there were plenty other elements to keep me enthralled, and I really enjoyed it. "

" Surprised by this book. I didn't know what to expect from the story and it certainly didn't give away any secrets early on. Great short story with lots of humour. "

" One of only two books I couldn't read - finally finished it, but hated it all the way :( "

" Oscar Wilde is a genius. I felt like highlighting every single dialogue by Lord Henry. The name Basil Hallward got me craving Spicy Basil Chicken. "

" Interesting read. Enjoyed but found the story spent too much time building up the plot and not enough on what he did. I guess left to your imagination. "

" I fought not to read this book for a while since the school's "must read" list of books usually contained not so interesting stuff. And when I finally got it to read I was strongly surprised that I found a masterpiece of drama and fantasy! "

" Every evil has its end .... "

" A quote to remember on every page "

" I would give it a 4.5 stars if possible. "

" I admit I gave up on it. I think I only read half of the book. I just don't like watching someone corrupt someone else, and the slew of bad decisions that Dorian makes. Bleh. I was getting really tired of lord Henry. "

" I really liked this book. It was very thought provoking, and rarely boring. I really liked all of the characters, and thought the end was pretty fitting. I would recommend it to anyone! "

" held my interest throughout....a beautiful soul running down the road to perdition knowingly and purposefully meeting it's demise. "

" I probably would give it 3.75 stars. There were a couple of slow spots, but overall I enjoyed the plot twists and there were a lot of quotable quotes. Also, it's just over 200 pages which makes it manageable for a classic. "

" this is one of my favoirtes. "

" The creepy, sad, and heartbreaking tale of how a man's actions color and illustrate his soul. I would recommend it to most. "

" Genius. There is nothing else to be said. This is an unsettling read - but necessary. What is the price of beauty? What is its essence? What would you give for it? "

" One of my favorite books of all time. Has a great early sort of magical realism and the decadents are interesting in the way they blend victorianism and modernism. Read it! "

" The book which contains most of Oscar Wilde's greatest quotes. Can't beat that! "

" It is a really exciting story full of unexpected events. Loved it from the beginning to the very end. "

" This book was fantastic! Do yourself a favor and read this book! "

" I love Oscar and I wish he would reincarnate just like Jesus did so I could elope with him! "

" I was given this book upon my completion of year 12 English by my teacher. She said it was her favourite book. I have to agree, that it is incredible. I most likely wouldn't have read it otherwise and thank her. "

" The Picture of Dorian Gray has become one of my favorite books of all time. It's such a beautifully tragic story, and is surprisingly laced with the grotesque values of an average person. "

" A very good read. Thought provoking, beautifully written, I found it hard to put it down. "

" I enjoyed this book. A little different than what historically I understood of the story from other writings and fiction. Good one to read. "

" I enjoyed it, it was wonderful and witty to read. Wordy, yes. But that is how most older books are. If you like something fast paced and action packed then this is not for you. But if you like a deep look into the slow and steady corruption of someone's soul then you will like this book. "

" Middle third of the book is really dull and cause for skimming. Bit of a Poe feel to it. Lord Henry is alive and well today unfortunately, while Basil is becoming less and less visible. Are we all the 17 year old Dorian looking for Basil, but finding Lord Henry instead? "

" This story was painfully slow with detail in spots, I will always remember it, and I am glad to have read a classic. My rating 3.5 "

" Just not my cup of tea. "

" Very good plot, simply loved it. "

" Through the portray of Dorian, Wilde manages to portray a human soul and its most primitive and dark parts. "

" Bewildered by the splendidly articulated philosophical inclinations of Oscar Wilde. "

" Problablemente la obra mas espectacular de Oscar Wilde. DEGRADACION DE LA MORALIDAD. "

" Probably one of my favourite reads of all time, a true classic. "

" i love love love it "

" Through the portray of Dorian, Wilde manages to portray a human soul and its most primitive and dark parts. "

" So current that makes this one of the best classics ever. The first big book i've ever read, i was only 11 when first got to it. "

" i've learned to be suspicious of people who enjoy flinging themselves into chairs. "

" the best to represent : careful what you wish for :)...one of the most affecting novels i have ever read "

" This may be a classic but I had to force myself to finish it . "

" one of the best examples of Victorian writing in my very uninformed opinion. "

" The book was enjoyable, but at times a little bit dry. "

" One of the strangest books I have ever read. "

" It was an interesting read. "

" So many beautiful quotes. I totally loved it because it made me think after every sentence about "good vs bad". "

" Fantastic. Couldn't put it down. "

" I love lord Henry. He and his quotes are amazing. Absolutely. "

" Once I got through the first half it was pretty good. I guess I like more action or plot in my books than just philosophical wonderings. I am glad I read it though. "

" Love this! Such great philosophical statements. Loved that he was an anti-hero all the way through. "

" Profoundly contributed to my childhood pondering. "

" One of my favorite books ever! It's brutal honesty of how indulging in your every wish and desire has a price to pay yet it has some complete truth and fear some have " when one loses their youth and beauty, one looses everything " "

" Even knowing of the story, the book is an excellent read. I enjoyed it thoroughly! "

" What a Extraordinary Tale of a man's quest to hide his sins, and the life impure and immortalized of Mister Gray. I would give this book a four and a half stars if they had a rating for that.....Timothy~ "

" Slow and tedious read but absolutely beautifully written. A work if art. "

" To be honest, it became so boring, I stopped reading it. The story could have lasted fewer pages, and that's a fact. "

" Very unique. I think what I really got out of this was how easily we are influenced at a certain age in our life if we don't have the proper guidance and mentoring. One wrong turn???? "

" Good. Very quotable. At times Dorian Gray and Lord Henry make you want to pull your hair out. "

" A deeply dark and wondrous story of narcissism and regret! "

" Una de mis obras favoritas. Extraordinaria. "

" The book was enjoyable, but at times a little bit dry. "

" I had to read this for school, and it really just wasn't a favourite of mine. "

" I am yet to read a bad Oscar Wilde book. He is simply amazing. "

" I'm glad I finally read it. I don't enjoy stories where the protagonist is a villain, especially when the author obviously has so much sympathy for the character. "

" very witty book, definitely one to be read over and over. All Wilde says is the truth, no matter how paradoxical "

" I am yet to read a bad Oscar Wilde book. He is simply amazing. "

" The dated style of prose makes it a slow read, but the story is a classic. Knowing that Oscar Wilde was struggling with his sexuality adds an element that gives depth to the conflict. "

" I found much of this difficult to read in this day and age, especially the epigramatic dialog but the rest was very good. Not my first time and would recommend as an important classic to read. "

" Macabre version of Thomas Hardy. Memorable. "

" This novel isn't as well known as Dracula or Frankenstein but it is just as good. In some ways, it is darker than those two as well. "

" wonderful story of a man who finds out how life is and who becomes something that he is not. I think this is what happens with all of us at a certain age, we are all good people at the beginning but we have to change during the life. And the metaphor of the picture is great. "
