Samenvatting:

Dorian Gray is young, wealthy, and extraordinarily handsome. When his portrait is painted, he makes a fateful wish—that the image will bear the marks of age and corruption while he himself remains forever young. The wish is granted, and as Dorian plunges deeper into a life of excess and moral compromise, the portrait begins to change in ways both disturbing and profound.

While Dorian’s outward appearance remains untouched by time, the hidden image records every sin, every cruelty, and every secret. Trapped between pleasure and conscience, he is drawn into a psychological struggle that questions the true cost of beauty, vanity, and unchecked desire.

First published in 1890, The Picture of Dorian Gray is Oscar Wilde’s haunting masterpiece—a gothic and philosophical novel that explores identity, morality, and the danger of living without restraint. Elegant, unsettling, and timeless, it remains one of the most influential works of classic literature.

Perfect for fans of gothic fiction, literary classics, and psychological drama, this audiobook invites you to listen closely—and look beneath the surface.
