"When Dorian Gray sees his stunning painted portrait,, he is transfixed by its reflection of his own beauty. He is also troubled by the knowledge that the image in the painting will remain forever handsome while he himself grows older and less desirable. He professes that he would give his soul if only the painting would suffer the ravages of time and he were to remain forever young. As the old adage goes: Be careful what you wish for."--Front inside jacket flap.
