Description
Oscar Wilde's fairy tales subvert the genre entirely by infusing them with heartbreaking social critique and moral irony wrapped in beautiful prose that works equally well for children and adults. The Happy Prince himself becomes a meditation on the cost of compassion in an indifferent world.
