Redesign of "The Picture of Dorian Gray"

A fictional redesign of the book "The Picture of Dorian Gray" by Oscar Wilde for a university project. This project looks into what it means for a graphic designer to be a "co-author". In this project, it means that I as a designer, have designed the book in the way I have experienced it. I have change the layout, to show Dorians progression through out the book. The front and the back resembles the change he is going through, and the book edges have a hand painted gradient, to show his progression as well.

Disclaimer: This book is not published, and is only made for a University project.  
Both the "paintings" on the front and the back is painted in Photoshop. The colours are chosen based on the descriptions of Dorian. The change of colour shows the change of Dorian. 
The layout becomes more and more "broken" and hard to read, to show Dorians progression.
