"The Picture of Dorian Gray" is Oscar Wilde's most famous work, his only novel, which, despite being met with widespread criticism in its time, nevertheless enjoyed incredible success. The novel's protagonist, the handsome Dorian, is a dual, ambiguous figure. A refined aesthete and romantic, he becomes a ruthless criminal, and his attempt to preserve his extraordinary beauty and youth ends in failure.

Wilde's short stories and fairy tales—including the celebrated "The Canterville Ghost," "The Happy Prince," "The Star-Child," and "The Nightingale and the Rose"—combine romance and social satire; they are ironic and slightly sad, full of grace and wit. His fairy tales, written for adults "who have not lost the gift of joy and wonder," are touching tales of love, kindness, and self-sacrifice.
