В книге представлена версия романа, написанная в 1891 году, состоящая из 20 глав. Это первый и единственный роман писателя, который произвёл огромный резонанс. Литературные критики требовали его запретить, однако большинство читателей приняли произведение с восторгом. Однажды любуясь своим портретом, главный герой высказывает роковое желание, оставаться всегда таким же молодым. С тех пор у Грея не появилось ни одной морщины, но каждый его порочный шаг делал безобразным лицо на холсте.
