The Picture of Dorian Gray_ A review

Another remarkable piece of art by Oscar Wilde. The storyline is so strong that I couldn't help appreciating it. All I could conclude from the story was, 'No matter how you get deeper into violence and sin you have to regret in the end' This is the story containing a strong moral lesson. A young and beautiful man like Dorian was quite likely to get distracted especially in the era when whole English society was under a fast transformation. And especially when Dorian himself was under a strong influence of a person like Harry, who happened to have bad impact on his friends. With his youth and beauty, it wasn't unnatural for Dorian Gray to make a wish for eternal beauty. Well, he did get his wish fulfilled with the help of his own picture made by his friend Basil who later was killed by Dorian himself. The story reveals the weaknesses of human nature. It portraits the strong feelings of regret and shame. After passing his whole life in sin, Dorian realizes that he actually had destroyed his soul. He wanted to repair it by being good, but an irrevocable damage had been made to his soul. He could not mend it and died. Well, it was just an incomplete outline of the story. All the same, I liked it very much and I would appreciate if you read it too.
