Only in a literary fashion the story, “The Portrait of Dorian Gray” tells the tale of Basil an artist, and a young man Dorian, as his subject. This is not about the “Portrait” as much as it is about the phenomenal way of life we in the United States of America have built into the 234th year of our existence, and what politicians are now trying to alter. It is an attempt in drawing a parallel between the writers’ fictional novel and realities today.
