"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. This Canterbury Classics edition includes the beloved story as well as a special heat-burnished cover, foil stamping, and designed endpapers in an easy-to-carry package.
A cautionary tale of innocence sacrificed for the sake of vice, "The Picture of Dorian Gray" is a classic whose lessons are still relevant today.

评分喜歡Canterbury Classics係列的裝幀和排版,封麵是軟皮的,隨身帶著很方便,就是灰色容易髒;細節和風景描寫優美得令人發指?黑化後的Dorian有幾段monologue比較晦澀;Lord Henry傲嬌毒舌,簡直就是王爾德的化身!齣場標配都是shrug his shoulder和languid voice…當然瞭,角色的某些三觀真是不敢苟同…
评分“The books that the world calls immoral are books that show the world its own shame.” "Each of us has heaven and hell in him, Basil," "Society—civilized society, at least— is never very ready to believe anything to the detriment of those who are both rich and fascinating." Harry纔是最後的王者,看透一切。說瞭一些歪理邪說,讓人很難反駁。
评分通過和作者的直接交流 而不是通過譯者 那些文字更美瞭
评分讀王爾德是種享受
