Isobel Murray Ordine dei libri (cronologico)

Oscar Wilde's poetry and plays have been entertaining readers and audiences for over a century, and for good reason. His infectious personality shows through his bitingly witty, satirical plays and bittersweet poems, making them endlessly compelling, unapologetically blunt and even melancholy

For the first time in one volume, this complete collection of all the short fiction Oscar Wilde published contains such social and literary parodies as "Lord Arthur Savile's Crime" and "The Canterville Ghost;" such well-known fairy tales as "The Happy Prince," "The Young King," and "The Fisherman and his Soul;" an imaginary portrait of the dedicatee of Shakespeare's Sonnets entitled "The Portrait of Mr. W.H.;" and the parables Wilde referred to as "Poems in Prose," including "The Artist," "The House of Judgment," and "The Teacher of Wisdom."
