The picture of Dorian Gray and selected stories Book

This is my favourite book of all time.
It is so wonderfully written, that I feel the need to underline sentences on nearly every page. And not only is the style of the writing amazing: the story itself is marvelous. To be forever young and beautiful has been a dream of many a man. Oscar Wilde made a story out of it that truly holds all genres in one. Furthermore, you can't help but to feel that you actually know the characters. Dorian Gray, whose change you can feel along with him inside you, Lord Henry Wotton, with all his wonderfully interesting speeches, and Basil Hallward, the timid artist overpowered by the mere presence of this young man, Dorian Gray. Even the other characters in the book get a voice and a body and come to life, as it were, before your very eyes.
I will always be able to marvel over this book. I will always want to read it. Again and again. The more you read it, the more you'll see.
