The picture of Dorian Gray has shown me the world like I have never seen before. The direct language that has been used, are seldom dared by other authors of that time!
Lord Henry Wotton is legendary with his wit and view of the society and Dorian is the embodiment of "what will happen when we are irresponsible of our actions"
Stephen Chbosky once said "Be a filter not a sponge". The same rule applies to this book while reading.
If I could rate it higher than 5, I would do it in a heartbeat.

“Yes; he would try to be to Dorian Gray what, without knowing it, the lad was to the painter who had fashioned the wonderful portrait. He would seek to dominate him – had already, indeed, half done so. He would make that wonderful spirit his own. There was something fascinating in this son of Love and Death.“
