babe dorian if you need something to combat youth, in the modern day you just need a good sunscreen! no need for a whole portrait from basil who offered you unrequited love, no years of corruption by lord henry told in an extraneous chapter of luxury disguised as culture, no , no crime coverups. just a good spf50 pa++++ reef-safe sunscreen with some retinol or vitamin c and you'll have a guiltless young face.
this book is a nice read if you want to let go of the obsessions to youthfulness and vanity. also nostalgia maybe.
