Enticing Excerpt

"The body sins once, and has done with its sin, for action is a mode of purification... Resist it, and your soul grows sick with longing for the things it has forbidden to itself, with desire for what its monstrous laws have made monstrous and unlawful."


" The Picture of Dorian Gray" by Oscar Wilde, published in 1890, unveils a tale that intertwines beauty, decadence, and moral corruption. The protagonist, Dorian Gray, initially embodies youthful innocence and charm, drawn into a world of opulence and hedonism by Lord Henry Wotton. A portrait painted by artist Basil Hallward captures Dorian's pristine beauty, while he remains untouched by the passage of time and sin.

Dorian's captivating appearance and Henry's philosophies lead him down a treacherous path, where he seeks pleasure and experience without concern for the consequences. The portrait, hidden from view, ages and bears the scars of Dorian's moral degradation, while he remains outwardly untouched. As his actions become increasingly callous and corrupt, Dorian is faced with the consequences of his choices, struggling to reconcile his external youth with his internal decay.

Dorian's personality evolves from youthful innocence to a complex mixture of vanity, guilt, and eventual self-loathing. Initially portrayed as charming and impressionable, he becomes seduced by his own image and the allure of perpetual youth, ultimately descending into a morally bankrupt existence. This transformation highlights the dangers of pursuing superficial beauty and pleasure at the expense of one's integrity. Through Dorian Gray's journey, Wilde masterfully critiques societal values, the duality of human nature, and the price of unchecked desires, leaving readers captivated by the haunting exploration of the human psyche.
