I read it as that you cannot escape your sins. No matter what, you will pay the piper and it's all the more horrible the longer you try to put it off.

I really liked this book. Had to read it for English in high school and it's probably one of the few books I was forced to read that I actually enjoyed.
Oh really when?
I like how Dorian Gray is the incorruptible at first and how Lord Henry manipulated the blonde for his own gains. The moral is "Always be on your guard"

Just got out of a pretty heated debate today in class, where I was the sole defender of Dorian Gray as a sympathetic/tragic character.
Like, I think he's responsible for his actions, and he gets a more or less just compuence for his crimes and mistakes- but I also don't believe he is purely to blame for the destruction and death caused by his downward spiral. A good chunk of the blame goes to Lord Henry, who with malice and forethought corrupted Dorian with intent of making him into a debauched monster in line with Henry's stated philosophies.

I'm confused. What's the Aesop? Is there one? Can it only be a Fantastic Aesop, or does it have Applicability?
Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
