A House of Pomegranates is a collection of fairy tales written by Oscar Wilde and originally published in 1891. The book features four stories: The Young King, The Birthday of the Infanta, The Fisherman and his Soul, and The Star-Child. Each story is a unique and imaginative tale that explores themes of love, sacrifice, and redemption. The Young King tells the story of a young prince who learns the true meaning of wealth and power. The Birthday of the Infanta follows the tragic fate of a dwarf who falls in love with a princess. The Fisherman and his Soul is a tale of a man who gives up his soul for love and must face the consequences of his actions. Finally, The Star-Child is a story about a boy who is born with a star on his forehead and must learn to overcome his selfishness and cruelty.Throughout the book, Wilde's writing is characterized by his trademark wit and elegance. The stories are filled with vivid descriptions and beautiful language, making them a pleasure to read. A House of Pomegranates is a timeless classic that continues to captivate readers with its magical and thought-provoking tales.Four children's stories by Oscar Wilde, includes The Birthday of The Infanta, which I used to teach with in Seoul.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
