Uno dei primi classici che ho letto e che mi ha fatto capire di poter iniziare ad amare i classici.
Ho adorato lo stile e la storia. Un po' complesso per la mia età, infatti mi sento di non averlo compreso appieno, ma AMATO.

Though I think it occasionally drags on too long about the trivialities of upper class life (which I'm well aware is intentional; but it gets annoying), I still very much enjoyed the novel as a whole. It's a deeply distressing and cynical story - often darkly funny in that cynicism - and watching it shape Dorian into the cruel man he's known for being was fascinating to say the least.

This book wasn't anything like I thought it be honestly. I really didn't expect the main character to be such a pompous sociopath.
