Oscar Wilde’s “The Picture of Dorian Gray” is a literary masterpiece that explores the complex interplay between morality, decadence, and the consequences of unchecked vanity. Published in 1890, the novel centers around Dorian Gray, a young and handsome man whose portrait ages and bears the marks of his moral decay while he remains perpetually young and unblemished. The narrative serves as a scathing critique of the superficiality and hedonism of Victorian society, challenging conventional notions of morality and the pursuit of pleasure. Wilde weaves a tale that delves into the psychological intricacies of the human soul, examining the corrosive effects of indulgence and the ultimate price of living a life devoid of ethical constraints.
