'I shall grow old ... but this picture will remain always young ... if it were only the other way! ... I would give my soul for that!'
When Dorian Gray utters this wish, he little realizes its significance. From that moment on, he begins to sink from purity into a mire of corruption. But it is the portrait and not the man, that manifests the signs of his hideous cruelty.
Wilde's Faustian story of the worm in the bud is brilliantly told with all of the author's customary flamboyance and wit.
