| Publisher Description: You will always be fond of me. I represent to you all the sins you have never had the courage to commit. Dorian Gray - handsome, clever, wretched. With his boyish good looks and charm to boot, Dorian Gray is the embodiment of refinement, grace, and allure. As with all beautiful things, he knows his good looks will not last. That is until an artist completes a portrait of Dorian. When Dorian sees the completed oil painting, he expresses his desire to sell his soul so that the painting would endure the normal hardships that age ravages upon beauty. And so his wish was granted, and as decades passed on by, his immorality increased but he himself never ages a day. The painting, however, has had to endure all of Dorian's misdeeds; thus, becoming a reflection of Dorian's true character |
