El libro del club es 'Retrato de Dorian Gray' de Oscar Wilde. "Todo arte es a la vez superficie y símbolo. Es al espectador, y no a la vida, a quien el arte realmente refleja." 

Narra la historia de un joven apuesto que vende su alma para conservar su juventud eterna. Mientras él permanece intacto, su retrato pintado al óleo envejece y se corrompe con cada uno de sus pecados y actos malvados. La obra es una profunda reflexión filosófica sobre el narcisismo, la moralidad y la obsesión por las apariencias en la sociedad. 

Te esperamos en el club.
