together they make sparks. Their love is solid as a mountain rock.

5. DORIAN GRAY
Year: 1890
Author: Oscar wilde
Place: United Kingdom
In the portrait of Dorian Gray, wealth unfortunately
wins over love. Superficiality and the love of
appearing emerges in the novel.

This vision of life makes us understand
how important is appearing rather than being;
such a profound feeling as love shouldn’t be
dominated by wealth and problems arising.

of the protagonist. Although he is rich and believes that wealth is

corrupted by richness
