The Picture of Dorian Gray
(eAudiobook)
Description
Dive into Oscar Wilde's haunting masterpiece, The Picture of Dorian Gray, a philosophical novel that explores the corruption of a soul consumed by vanity and hedonistic pleasure. This gripping narrative of a young, enchantingly handsome Dorian Gray, who wishes for his portrait to age while he remains youthful, reveals the dark consequences of such desire. As Dorian embarks on a life influenced by the cynical Lord Henry Wotton, he plunges into a world of immorality, retaining his outward beauty while his portrait grotesquely transforms to mirror his inner corruption. Wilde's only novel, blending elements of Gothic horror with eloquent tragedy, provocatively challenges the obsession with outward appearance, starkly commenting on Victorian society's moral decadence. Engage with a book that has captivated readers for over a century with Wilde's razor-sharp wit and sumptuous prose, inviting you to ponder the price of eternal beauty. The Picture of Dorian Gray remains a timeless reflection on aesthetics and ethics, becoming increasingly relevant in today's visually driven culture. Rediscover this classic novel that beautifully marries horror, beauty, and moral questioning. This audiobook was narrated and produced by RAM Studios, where humans and artificial intelligence collaborate to create an excellent listening experience. (The reading is done primarily by AI)
