"When we are happy, we are always good," says Lord Henry, "but when we are good, we are not alway happy."Lord Henry's lazy, clever words lead the young Dorian Grey into a world where it is better to be beautiful than to be good; a world where anything can be forgiven - even murder - if it can make people laugh at a dinner party.
An exploration of Oscar Wilde's self-creation as a 'work of art'.
