{"product_id":"o-retrato-de-dorian-gray","title":"The Picture of Dorian Gray","description":"\u003cp\u003eDorian Gray is an uncommonly beautiful young man who fascinates Basil Hallward, a London painter. Determined to immortalize Dorian's beauty on canvas, Basil convinces him to pose for him. During one of these sessions, the young man meets Lord Henry Wotton, a cynical and hedonistic aristocrat, who awakens him to beauty and seduces him with his worldview, where the only things worth pursuing are beauty and pleasure. Horrified by the inevitable fate that will make him age and lose his beauty, Dorian tells his friends that he is willing to do anything, even sell his soul, to remain eternally young and maintain his beauty. \u003cbr\u003e\nStrengthened by hedonism, Dorian cruelly mistreats his fiancée, Sybil Vane, who commits suicide out of heartbreak. Upon learning of the incident, the young man begins to notice subtle changes in his expression in the painting, and realizes that it is the Dorian in the painting who ages and suffers with the passing years, while the real Dorian remains with his youth and beauty intact. A Gothic horror novel with a strong Faustian theme, The Picture of Dorian Gray is considered by critics to be Oscar Wilde's finest work.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Círculo de leitores","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56389275189596,"sku":null,"price":8.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/eraoutravez.com\/en\/products\/o-retrato-de-dorian-gray","provider":"Era Outra Vez","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
