The release date for the English version of 'The Picture of Dorian Gray' by Oscar Wilde is Jun 2004. If you enjoy this novel, it is available for buy as a paperback from Barnes & Noble or Indigo, as an ebook on the Amazon Kindle store, or as an audiobook on Audible.

The surreal tale of a young man who sells his soul for perpetual youth and beauty is found in Oscar Wilde's only book.

Wilde created a scathing depiction of the repercussions of wickedness and debauchery on a young aesthete in late 19th-century England in this well-known masterpiece. The novel's central idea, which combines aspects of decadent French fiction with Gothic horror literature, is stunning. Dorian Gray's physique remains youthful and vibrant despite his descent into a life of crime and obscene sensuality, but his newly painted picture is turning into a horrific record of evil that he has to conceal from the public. This captivating story of terror and suspense has been widely read for more than a century. It is regarded as one of Wilde's most significant works and one of the greatest examples of its genre.
