Oscar Wilde

A House of Pomegranates Annotated Oscar Wilde

A House of Pomegranates is a collection of whimsical short stories by Oscar Wilde. This collection includes the following tales: The Young King, The Birthday of the Infant, The Fisherman and his Soul, and The Star-child. Readers of all ages will be delighted by these fanciful tales. A House of Pomegranates contains four short fairy tales by Wilde. I originally intended just to read one of them but ended up reading the whole book! Each story has a moral lesson for the reader but first and foremost they are enjoyable fairy tales - although quite dark in tone, as many fairy tales are.
