美少年道连·葛雷面对好友霍尔沃德为他画好的肖像,说:"如果我能够永葆青春,而让这幅画像去变老......我愿拿我的灵魂换青春!"这一荒唐的愿望构成了唯美主义代表作家王尔德唯一长篇小说《道连·葛雷的画像》的情节基础。不料此言一出,竟一语成谶。环境影响和追求享乐的结果,导致葛雷在自我放纵的泥淖中越陷越深,直至彻底毁灭。书中还收入了王尔德的两部中篇名作,基本囊括了王尔德的小说精华。("If I could keep my youth forever, and let the portrait grow old ...... I would like to take my soul for exchange of youth!" said Dorian Gray the adonis, in facing of the portrait his good friend Horwald made for him. This absurd desire constitutes the plot basis of the only full-length novel Portrait of Dorian Gray of Wilde, a representative writer of aestheticism. Unexpectedly, the saying turned out to be a prophecy. As a result of the environmental effect and the pursuit of pleasure, Gray was trapped deeper and deeper in the mud of self-indulgence until the complete destruction. The book also contains two of Wilde's medium-length masterworks, which basically included Wilde's novel essence.)
