I was so fascinated and repulsed all at once, and yet it is fast becoming one of my favourite reads. In the beginning of the novel, I could almost smell the beauty described, but towards the end I could smell and taste the ugliness that comes with deceit, violence, and the demoralisation and decaying of the mind and soul. It left me with a bittersweet taste in my mouth, but also a richness of wisdom and insight in my mind and in my heart.

Apart from a rather lengthy chunk of the book that is not much more than a shopping list for the vainglorious, this novel is a good Faustian tale. The idea that we can put our soul or our conscience into a receptacle may be very appealing, until one reads this cautionary tale.

Karma happens, we all must be prepared to accept it's consequences when it comes back around. One person found this helpful. A classic book that's well worth reading. A deep look at the philosophy of ageing and the corruption of the soul that has just as many parallels today as it did during its Victorian publication.

I've watched the movies but there is nothing like reading the book for yourself.

What would you do with such a life? An incisive portrait of humanity. A brilliant gothic tale of self-love morphing to self-loathing. Psychological understandings before their time. Couldn't put it down. My first Wilde book.
