It is bursting with his trademark wit, his love of art, and his embrace of life and all it has to offer.\nDorian, fearful of age and the subsequent fading of his beauty, expresses a wish: that a glorious oil portrait of him suffers the burden of age, and not him. He would sell his soul for it. Unfortunately for him, the wish is granted.\nThrough Dorian, Oscar Wilde weaves an unforgettable tale about the punishment of excess and misplaced desire.\nTold in an exquisite blend of the Gothic and the philosophical, this fable about our obsession with the aesthetic unravels a horrifying truth: it is not if, but when and where our sins will manifest.\nThe Legend Classics series:\nAround the World in Eighty Days\nThe Adventures of Huckleberry Finn\nThe Importance of Being Earnest\nAlice's Adventures in Wonderland\nThe Metamorphosis\nThe Railway Children\nThe Hound of the Baskervilles\nFrankenstein\nWuthering Heights\nThree Men in a Boat\nThe Time Machine\nLittle Women\nAnne of Green Gables\nThe Jungle Book\nThe Yellow Wallpaper and Other Stories\nDracula\nA Study in Scarlet\nLeaves of Grass\nThe Secret Garden\nThe War of the Worlds\nA Christmas Carol\nStrange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde\nHeart of Darkness\nThe Scarlet Letter\nThis Side of Paradise\nOliver Twist\nThe Picture of Dorian Gray\nTreasure Island\nThe Turn of the Screw\nThe Adventures of Tom Sawyer\nEmma\nThe Trial\nA Selection of Short Stories by Edgar Allan Poe\nGrimm Fairy Tales\nThe Awakening\nMrs Dalloway\nGulliver’s Travels\nThe Castle of Otranto\nSilas Marner\nHard Times","brand":"Legend Press Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51319066755360,"sku":"9781789559620","price":8.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/2812\/7264\/files\/9781789559620.jpg?v=1773055805","url":"https:\/\/bookcorner.com\/products\/the-picture-of-dorian-gray-legend-classics-oscar-wilde-9781789559620","provider":"The Book Corner","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
