A review by phoenix2
The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde

3.0

Dorian Gray is an interesting story for the vanity of youth and the lengths one will take to be young forever. One thing that is for certain is that the writing is excellent. It reminds me of poetry, with the lyricism, the beautiful description of everything and the whole book looking like a work of art rather than a novel. The story itself it's entertaining and it is nice to read how Dorian changed from the naive teenager to the man who created his own fall. As for the pace, it was kind of tiring at times but it quickly picked up afterwards.
