As one of my favorites,I had read this book multiple times. When I discovered this version narrated by Edward Petherbridge, I bought it immediately. I love the story even more now. His voice is perfect, clear and easy to follow. Characterizations are enjoyable, never overdone. This book is a permanent resident of my mp3. When I can't sleep, I let Mr Petherbridge soothe my brain with his lovely voice.

A Beautiful Reading of a Beautiful Book

This book is dark, strange and very entertaining. It is filled with life quotes that make you think (sometimes agree, sometimes not). I believe this character is somewhat autobiographical and gives insight into Oscar Wilde’s world. I don't really like to read dark but, I'm glad I read this one. I just kept saying “wow”.

Wow

Frank Zappa says:
“If you end up with a boring miserable life because you listened to your mom, your dad, your teacher, your priest, or some guy on television telling you how to do your s--t, then you deserve it.”
But the opposite of this is also true. Doian Gray lives an exciting an pleasurable life, but understands much too late that there is a difference between pleasure and happiness.
I was surprised to notice the precision of this old sketch by Monty Pyton on how Oscar Wilde writes)


There are also couple of movief with the same name that portraits the book quite OK.
