"The Picture of Dorian Gray" is a familiar story of greed, sin, and arrogance. A young man, infatuated with his own handsomeness and youth as depicted in a perfect portrait, makes a bargain he will come to regret. No one can save him from his appetite for pleasure and his awful fate--not the man who idolizes him, not the woman who loves him, and not even himself!
Published in 1890, "The Picture of Dorian Gray" is Oscar Wilde's only novel. At first the subject of intense controversy, it has endured as a classic for years.

读这本书之前，认为王尔德是二流作家；之后，认为他是极其杰出的二流作家。妙语、格言和美不胜收的描写贯穿全书，结尾更是把唯美主义的戏剧性发挥到极致。王尔德本人是Lord Henry的话，Dorian Gray就是……Bosie？
评分clever but far from great.
评分"To get back my youth I would do anything in the world, except take exercise, get up early, or be responsible" 果然从古至今，人的惰性一个样，不分中外。
评分真的是一本好书 里面的内容经得起推敲打磨 通过读这本书 掌握到了故事发生的历史背景下的知识 而Dorian Gray ”carpe diem”的态度也让我对人生有了思考 等我知识储备更全面一些 一定会再回来读这本书
评分通过和作者的直接交流 而不是通过译者 那些文字更美了
