Brilliant writer, flamboyant playwright, and prominent journalist, Oscar Wilde was one of Victorian Britain's most accomplished - and notorious - literary figures. Satirical, charming, eminently quotable, yet also acutely observant, Oscar Wilde's writing continues to captivate readers to this day.
Inspired by the Irish fairy tales of his childhood, Oscar Wilde's imaginative story-telling incorporates a variety of genres - from mystery to fantasy and the supernatural. This anthology also demonstrates the serious social and artistic concerns which run throughout his fiction.
From The Happy Prince, a tender story about friendship and compassion, to The Remarkable Rocket, a cautionary tale about a deluded, self-important firework, Wilde's aesthetic preoccupations are evident in every line. Witty, wise, big-hearted, and sometimes melancholy, these writings are a testament to his standing as a literary genius of the Victorian age.
