الوصف
The Picture of Dorian Gray follows the artist Basil Hallward and his friend Lord Henry Wotton as they become entangled with the mesmerizing young Dorian Gray. Dorian’s beauty captivates all who meet him, but conversations about morality, influence, and the cost of resisting temptation leave a mark. As Basil paints Dorian’s portrait, Dorian begins to change—seeking youth and pleasure, yet haunted by what his choices reveal. The novel unfolds through sharp dialogue and psychological tension, turning questions of art and identity into a dark, uncanny investigation of conscience. It is a work for readers drawn to aesthetic language, moral ambiguity, and stories where outward beauty hides inner corruption.

معاينة
From the corner of the divan of Persian saddle-bags on which he was lying, smoking, as usual, innumerable cigarettes, Lord Henry Wotton could just catch the gleam of the honey-sweet and honey-colored blossoms of the laburnum, whose tremulous branches seemed hardly able to bear the burden of a beauty so flame-like as theirs; and now and then the fantastic shadows of birds in flight flitted across the long tussore-silk curtains that were stretched in front of the huge window, producing a kind of momentary Japanese effect, and making him think of those pallid jade-faced painters who, in an art that is necessarily immobile, seek to convey the sense of swiftness and motion.
