A collection of four tales
31 ottobre 2011
Di babel
- Pubblicato su Amazon.com
Formato:Formato Kindle|Acquisto verificato Amazon
This book comprises four tales and is a companion to The Happy Prince and Other Tales.
The stories in this book are:
* The Young King: A young shepherd is taken to the palace to be crowned king. He dreams of the sorrows befallen those who have provided his coronation finery.
* The Birthday of the Infanta: A hunchback dwarf is given to the Spanish princess for her 12th birthday.
* The Fisherman and his Soul: A young fisherman must lose his soul in order to be with the mermaid he loves.
* The Star-child: A baby is found in the woods and is brought up by a woodcutter. He grows up to be handsome but cruel.
As with the stories in The Happy Prince, these tales *can* be read to children but are intended for adults, with an underlying morality to each tale.

The next best thing to the original first edition

- Pubblicato su Amazon.com
Formato:Rilegato|Acquisto verificato Amazon
This is an unabridged reprint of one of the most sought after books illustrated by Jessie M. King. The original edition was first published by Methuen and Coy, Ltd., London, 1914, which now is very difficult to find and would cost more than $500 if in good condition. The original tipped in color plates by King are faithfully reproduced in this edition. (This review is for A House of Pomegranates (Calla Editions), published in 2011)

Somewhat Disappointing
15 dicembre 2011
Di J. de Baun
- Pubblicato su Amazon.com
Formato:Rilegato|Acquisto verificato Amazon
This is a high quality book, but the illustrations are drab, dull and BORING. That's the major reason why I would not recommend this book. There is a cheaper edition of Wilde's fairy tales available at Amazon that has gorgeous illustrations and is a better value.
