Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde. The Picture of Dorian Gray is Oscar Wilde's only novel, first published in 1890, is a brilliantly designed puzzle, intended to tease conventional minds with its exploration of the myriad interrelationships between art, life, and consequence. From its provocative Preface, challenging the reader to believe in 'art for art's sake', to its sensational conclusion, the story self-consciously experiments with the notion of sin as an element of design. Yet Wilde himself underestimated the consequences of his experiment, and its capacity to outrage the Victorian establishment. Its words returned to haunt him in his court appearances in 1895, and he later recalled the 'note of doom' which runs like 'a purple thread' through its carefully crafted prose.
Bức tranh Dorian Gray của Oscar Wilde. Bức tranh của Dorian Gray là cuốn tiểu thuyết duy nhất của Oscar Wilde, xuất bản lần đầu vào năm 1890, là một câu đố được thiết kế tuyệt vời, nhằm mục đích trêu chọc những bộ óc thông thường bằng việc khám phá vô số mối quan hệ qua lại giữa nghệ thuật, cuộc sống và hệ quả. Từ Lời nói đầu đầy khiêu khích, thách thức người đọc tin vào 'nghệ thuật vị nghệ thuật', cho đến kết luận giật gân, câu chuyện đã tự giác thử nghiệm quan niệm tội lỗi như một yếu tố của thiết kế. Tuy nhiên, bản thân Wilde đã đánh giá thấp hậu quả của thí nghiệm của mình và khả năng gây phẫn nộ của chính quyền Victoria. Những lời lẽ của nó quay trở lại ám ảnh ông trong những lần hầu tòa vào năm 1895, và sau đó ông nhớ lại 'nốt nhạc diệt vong' chạy như 'sợi chỉ tím' qua lối văn xuôi được trau chuốt cẩn thận.
