My dear people,here are my new impressions on our individual reading. My last post finished with the fact that Sybil becomes so overcome with
her love for Dorian and she loses the interest in her roles. This
destroys Dorian's love for her and he brutally dumps her. Back
home,he notices something different in his portrait – it looks
somehow crueler. In the meanwhile, the distraught Sybil commits
suicide,as soon as Dorian decides to return to her and take back his
terrible words. Sybil's suicide changes everything. At first, Dorian
feels
horrible – but he rather quickly changes his state. On Lord Henry's
suggestion, Dorian reads a mysterious "yellow book," a French
novel that makes him reevaluate his whole belief system. The protagonist
of the book lives his life in pursuit of sensual pleasures, which
intrigues Dorian. From this moment on, Dorian is a changed man,he is
different.
Dorian starts to live as hedonistically as Lord Henry does. The only thing that proves this turn for the worst is the portrait, which begins to exhibit the inner corruption of Dorian's soul. The beautiful image changes, revealing new scars and physical flaws with each of Dorian's cowardly actions. As years pass, the man in the picture grows more and more hideous,as Dorian himself stays unnaturally young and beautiful. Rumors start to spread about the various people whose lives Dorian has ruined and his good reputation is destroyed.
My friends! I have stopped here. I will read in the vacation and I will post something else,new and interesting. I am also looking forward to your posts. So,read and post!:) BE POSITIVE! Have fun!
Sincerely yours,
A.G.

Good job, my Bambulica! You're very specific as usual. I also like the book, and the idea that the picture of Dorian, who does bad things and hurts others, is gettng worst with every single deed!
