The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde
Part of the Chiltern Classics range. When having his portrait painted, Dorian Gray declares he would give anything to stay youthful - even his soul. Dorian descends into a life of decadent excess, and while he retains his youthful looks, the portrait becomes horrifically disfigured. Oscar Wilde's only novel is a dark, Faustian fable of wish fulfilment that leads to an inescapable day of reckoning.
