The Picture of Dorian Gray, Oscar Wilde's only novel and one of the classics of gothic literature, is the tale of the most beautiful man of his age, who sells his soul and his conscience in exchange for eternal youth, beauty and power -- and who spends his life murdering, raping and corrupting. All the time in his attic, his picture degrades and rots. GRAY takes that basic idea but flips its moral framework and gender archetypes: our DORIAN GRAY is a Millennial social media princess who drifts through the coolest cliques of NYC, breaking hearts and turning heads wherever she goes. But Dorian has secrets. For one thing, she's a violent criminal. For another, she's an immortal creature of magic, who commits violent burglaries and assaults some of New York's most powerful men. 30 years ago, whilst an innocent student, Dorian was sexually assaulted by these men. In that moment that she became something both more and less than human. 30 years later, but not a day older, she's ready for her revenge. Then Dorian meets Detective HANK WUTAN, the African-American NYPD detective assigned to stop these crimes, struggling with his own loyalties as a Black cop in the era of Defund the Police. Despite the fact that Dorian is his suspect number one, and he is effectively working for her abusers, they fall for each other, hard. GRAY takes Wilde's classic novel and reinvents it as a tale of cathartic revenge for the #MeToo and Black Lives Matter era, a violent fantasy about how powerful, super-rich white men don't always win, how the powerless can find justice, and about how a murderous demon and a law-abiding detective can be soul mates."--Amazon.com. 500 $a "Inspired by Oscar Wilde's The picture of Dorian Gray." 600 10 $a Gray, Dorian $c (Fictitious character) $v Comic books, strips, etc. 600 17 $a Gray, Dorian $c (Fictitious character) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01746738 650 0 $a Revenge $v Comic books, strips, etc. 650 0 $a Immortalism $v Comic books, strips, etc. 650 0 $a Criminals $v Comic books, strips, etc. 650 0 $a Police $v Comic books, strips, etc. 650 0 $a Supernatural $v Comic books, strips, etc. 650 0 $a Man-woman relationships $v Comic books, strips, etc. 650 7 $a Supernatural. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01138960 650 7 $a Revenge. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01096476 650 7 $a Police. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01068398 650 7 $a Man-woman relationships. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01007080 650 7 $a Immortalism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00967851 650 7 $a Criminals. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00883516 651 0 $a New York (N.Y.) $v Comic books, strips, etc. 651 7 $a New York (State) $z New York. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204333 655 7 $a Romance comics. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01922531 655 7 $a Paranormal comics. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01922498 655 7 $a Fantasy comics. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921655 655 7 $a Comics (Graphic works) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921613 655 7 $a Graphic novels. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726630 655 7 $a Paranormal comics. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Fantasy comics. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Romance comics. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Comics (Graphic works) $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Graphic novels. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Koumaki, Eugenia, $e artist. 700 1 $a Greenhalgh, Diana, $e artist. 700 1 $a Lafuente, Joana, $e artist. 700 1 $i Based on (work): $a Wilde, Oscar, $d 1854-1900. $t Picture of Dorian Gray. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117022352.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B9DE5BCEA5B811ECBC4A196C2DECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
