The Picture of Dorian Gray is a novel by Oscar Wilde that was first published in 1890. It is the story of a young, handsome man named Dorian Gray who becomes corrupted by his own vanity and the influence of a hedonistic friend, Lord Henry Wotton. Dorian makes a Faustian bargain to keep his youth and beauty forever, while a portrait of him ages in his place. The novel explores themes of morality, decadence, and the corrupting influence of beauty and wealth. It is notable for its depiction of homosexuality, which was considered scandalous at the time of its publication. The novel has been adapted into numerous film and stage productions, and is considered a classic of English literature.

Under the influence of their charismatic classics professor, a group of clever, eccentric misfits at an elite New England college discover a way of thinking and living that is a world away from the humdrum existence of their contemporaries. But when they go beyond the boundaries of normal morality they slip gradually from obsession to corruption and betrayal, and at last—inexorably—into evil.
