The Picture of Dorian Gray

by Gina D.B. Clemen (Adaptor), Oscar Wilde (Creator), Justin Rainey (Contributor)

When the superbly handsome Dorian Gray sees his portrait he makes a terrible wish: that portrait will grow older and that he will remain young forever. What happens to the portrait that no one ever sees? This disturbing story of a man who is willing to sell his soul for eternal youth while pursuing pleasure and passion, was first published in 1890. It is one of Oscar Wilde's most celebrated works.

I have read this story in other versions already. This is my third time and it is clearer to me to understand what happens to Dorian Gray. This story contains things I like - suspense, horror, unexpectedness, and having a sexual orientation to persons of the same sex.
