Description
The Happy Prince and Other Tales
Originally published in 1888, this collection of five fairy tales was written by Oscar Wilde for a broad range of readers who retain their childlike wonder. Although the author claimed they were not for children, but rather for those who remain 'childlike from eighteen to eighty', these stories have become beloved by generations.
Illustrated with a poignant sensitivity by Charles Robinson, this edition brings a deep understanding of the tales' innate sadness, perfectly capturing the poetry and pathos of Wilde's text. A timeless and thought-provoking read, The Happy Prince and Other Tales invites you to discover the magic and moral lessons within.
Hardcover edition published in 1995, with 94 pages.
