Through Basil, Dorian meets Lord Henry Wotton, and he soon is enthralled by the aristocrat's hedonistic world view: that beauty and sensual fulfilment are the only things worth pursuing in life. Newly understanding that his beauty will fade, Dorian expresses the desire to sell his soul, to ensure that the picture, rather than he, will age and fade. The wish is granted, and Dorian pursues a libertine life of varied amoral experiences while staying young and beautiful; all the while, his portrait ages and records every sin. Chiltern creates the most beautiful editions of the World’s finest literature. Your favourite classic titles in a way you have never seen them before; the tactile layers, fine details and beautiful colours of these remarkable covers make these titles feel extra special and will look striking on any shelf. This book has a matching lined journal (sold separately). They make a great gift when paired together but are also just as beautiful on their own. Review: Great edition of the book, mixed on the story. - Story aside, this is a review of the Masterpiece Library Edition hardcover. Book is built solid. Very tight binding that feels like it will hold up to read after read. The book looks incredible on a shelf and in hand. Gilding is NOT incredibly thin and was not damaged after one reading like some cheaply gilded books. The description of the book on desertcart's page is fair and accurate. Sturdy, Durable, Quality. All accurate descriptors. Font and size all feel good to me and the line about being able to read even in poor light seems accurate to me. I read this mostly on my exercise bike in my dark ass basement and sitting at a bar with pretty dark lighting. I'm still a young man though. For the story I will say that I was incredibly intrigued for the first few chapters, bored for a good chunk, and then enthralled for the ending. I was a little bummed to learn this is the "censored" version, but I did a little digging and it seems the original version was published in a magazine and the novel length version has always been "censored" and was lengthened for publication as a novel. The story seemed stretched out to me, and I think the original version would have read better as a bit shorter of a work. I don't know the exact page count difference, but if this was 30-50 pages shorter I wouldn't have minded a bit I don't think. Review: Excellent quality - the gold stamped spine seems a touch extravagant to me, but I guess it's somewhat fitting for this book. Otherwise, excellent quality I like everything else about it very much. Really good binding, too, it can kinda just sit open on the desk. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #298,556 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #878 in Classic Literature & Fiction #1,952 in Gothic Fiction #13,544 in Literary Fiction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 1,804 Reviews | ## Images ![The Picture of Dorian Gray (Chiltern Classic) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91i9LeUx3KL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great edition of the book, mixed on the story. *by J***E on July 7, 2025* Story aside, this is a review of the Masterpiece Library Edition hardcover.

Otherwise, excellent quality I like everything else about it very much. Really good binding, too, it can kinda just sit open on the desk. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice book especially the cover. *by M***O on January 1, 2026* The book looks very nice. It seems to be well made. But my issue is the paper is unnecessarily thick and heavy making the book a little heavy for such a short read. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Picture of Dorian Gray (Chiltern Classic) - Frankenstein (Masterpiece Library Edition) - The Strange Case of Doctor Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (Masterpiece Library Edition) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/233835334-the-picture-of-dorian-gray-chiltern-classic](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/233835334-the-picture-of-dorian-gray-chiltern-classic) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-05-20*
