"The Portrait of Dorian Gray" - the most famous work of Oscar Wilde, his only novel, which caused in its time a flurry of negative assessments and yet had incredible success.
The main character of the novel, the handsome Dorian, - a dual figure, ambiguous. A subtle aesthete and romantic becomes a ruthless criminal. His attempt to preserve his extraordinary beauty and youth turns out to be a failure. Instead of the hero, his portrait grows old - but this cannot go on forever, and Dorian's death puts everything in its place.
Oscar Wilde's novel continues to be very relevant today - doesn't the pursuit of eternal youth sometimes turn out to be the loss of one's true face?
