Beschreibung

<p><b>A complete collection of enchanting fairy tales from the acclaimed poet and playwright Oscar Wilde</b></p><p>Celebrated as the writer of <i>The Picture of Dorian Gray </i>and <i>The Importance of Being Earnest, </i>Oscar Wilde is equally beloved for his fairy tales, written 'partly for children and partly for those who have kept the childlike faculties of wonder and joy'. With warmth, tenderness and quiet wit, these fables have moved and delighted for generations. In far-off kingdoms and ocean realms, in the company of giants and nightingales, Wilde speaks of heartbreak and redemption, of cruelty and compassion, of love lost, of love gained, of love everlasting. Rediscover here the complete stories from <i>The Happy Prince </i>and <i>The House of Pomegranates</i>, Wilde's two fairy tale collections.</p><p>'Wilde's children's stories are splendid ... As explanations of the world, fairy stories tell us what science and philosophy cannot and need not. There are different ways of knowing' Jeanette Winterson</p>
