doriangrey historical historicalfiction oscarwilde

Oscar Wilde's only novel is the dreamlike story of a young man who sells his soul for eternal youth and beauty.

In this celebrated work Wilde forged a devastating portrait of the effects of evil and debauchery on a young aesthete in late-19th-century England. Combining elements of the Gothic horror novel and decadent French fiction, the book centers on a striking premise: As Dorian Gray sinks into a life of crime and gross sensuality, his body retains perfect youth and vigor while his recently painted portrait grows day by day into a hideous record of evil, which he must keep hidden from the world. For over a century, this mesmerizing tale of horror and suspense has enjoyed wide popularity. It ranks as one of Wilde's most important creations and among the classic achievements of its kind.Todos os Direitos Reservados

Dorian pursues all the pleasures of life, unaware that his debauchery has spawned a werewolf that begins killing in the streets of London. Can Dorian and Sage save their souls? Or will the beast consume them all? "Rarely does romance and revenge intersect so pleasurably and delicately, forming a dance of passion and purpose that embraces a soul search and a confrontation between choices of salvation and sin." - Midwest Book Review "A delectable page turner. An excellent debut by Brian Ference. Full of excitement, anticipation, and rich scenery." - Pavan "It has something for everyone with action, romance, and mystery." - Rachel "There on my desk is the first passionate love-letter which I have ever composed in my life-and it is addressed to a dead girl." "The engorged moon hung full and low in the sky like a yellow skull. Misshapen clouds stretched across the floating orb with elongated hands and bony fingers grasping. As they neared the docks, the gas lamps grew fewer and the streets gloomier. The cobblestones blackened as they passed the deserted brickfields. Bottle-sgoodreadshaped kilns spat their outrage with orange tongues of fire into the cooling air. Mangy dogs snarled in hunger and wandering sea-gulls screamed their displeasure at the hansom's passage."

ETERNAL BLOOM, de simmlil

Dorian is a man of mystery and darkness, a being consumed by a love that transcends time. His life, steeped in power and vengeance, has left him cold, yet one glimpse of Lila-a beautiful, innocent model-threatens to unravel the fortress he's built around his heart. Lila, unaware of the storm she's about to enter, is captivated by the enigmatic Dorian. Drawn into a world where nothing is as it seems, she feels an inexplicable connection to him, one that both excites and terrifies her. As the past collides with the present, Dorian and Lila must navigate the treacherous waters of passion, power, and betrayal. Their journey is one of forbidden love, where every touch, every whispered word, brings them closer to the edge of an abyss they may not survive. This is a story of love and vengeance, where hearts are tested, boundaries are crossed, and the night holds the deepest secrets of all.

Blood on the Highway, de NickyAeryn

We were never meant to survive this world. Not me, not Dorian-two souls too wild, too broken to be tamed. We ran, faster than the ghosts that haunted us, faster than the blood we spilled. The highway was endless, our love fierce, our crimes unforgivable. But every story has an ending, and ours is written in blood and smoke. Dorian said we could outrun fate, but I know better now. You can't escape the dark when it lives inside you.
