If you've read the original Dorian Gray, you'll love this.

A modernization is it?

A modernization is it?

Yeah, and it is epic. I've always known that Dorian Gray would be perfectly placed in the 80's. Oh, and Wotton's remarks in the book are hilarious:
"My main pleasure in going to the opera is counting the homosexuals in the audience and seeing if they outnumber those on stage."

Be warned: There is lots of sex and drugs and stuff. It is also really dark, but I'm sure Wilde would be proud- I thoroughly recommend it.

And by the end, your dictionary will probably be well thumbed through.

Please find the thread "Cog's place for cool stuff" or whatever I called it and add this to the list.

Wow, I'm a big fan of Dorian Gray and Wilde in general. This is right up my alley, which is great because contemporary fiction rarely is. Thanks.​
