## Description

desertcart.com: The Picture of Dorian Gray: 9780141439570: Wilde, Oscar, Mighall, Robert, Mighall, Robert, Mighall, Robert: Books

Review: A picture can be two pictures - Amazing story, a true classic, and one of the ongoing (following Jeckell/Hyde) descriptions of the co-existence of purity and perversity within the same individual at the same time. This particular book is attractive and well made. Forced to read it in middle school, had no clue. Now as a senior it makes perfect sense, a short but compelling read.
Review: Sensational. - Excellent. As dripping with sensation and as worth reading now as it surely must have been one hundred and thirty years ago. I think the really captivating thing about reading a classic like this one—and reading the writing of someone who has clearly pondered at length the human condition—is just how relevant the ideas end up being to one’s modern mind state. It's sort of a "the more things change the more they stay the same" kind of thing. The same kind of thoughts capture out attention. The same kind of feelings seize our bodies. We seek the beautiful; the tragic; the transcendent. And so you're able to read a book written in 1890 and feel that, at least in part, it was written just for you.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A picture can be two pictures
*by A***R on November 6, 2025*

Amazing story, a true classic, and one of the ongoing (following Jeckell/Hyde) descriptions of the co-existence of purity and perversity within the same individual at the same time. This particular book is attractive and well made. Forced to read it in middle school, had no clue. Now as a senior it makes perfect sense, a short but compelling read.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Richer and more complex than I expected
*by D***J on January 4, 2026*

“It is the face of my soul.” (p163) Presumably, Oscar Wilde would object strongly to any attempt to find meaning in this novel. He states firmly in the preface that art is about beauty, not meaning. He repeats this assertion often in the novel itself. The briefest look at his biography confirms that he held this view. To paraphrase another thought he expresses several times in the novel itself, I don’t think he really believes this. I certainly do not. This wasn’t quite the parable of decadence that I anticipated; nor was it simply a sordid celebration of youth, beauty, and pleasure. The story was richer and more complex than any of that. The title character proved more thoughtful and vulnerable than I expected, and one other primary character astonished me. I enjoyed the sharp, cynical, sarcastic dialog poking fun at the ways in which people are often shallow and predictable. The ending was deeply troubling – and that’s a compliment. I relished Wilde’s deep insights into the human condition, even (perhaps especially) where I see the world differently. In short, while nobody will confuse “Dorian Gray” with “Pollyana”, it was for me an immensely satisfying read.
