Short Stories Wilde

Art contrasted with Nature, and outer ugliness with inner beauty, are just two of the themes featured in this collection of six tales, including The Canterville Ghost, The Remarkable Rocket, and – for all those who ‘have kept the childlike faculties of wonder and joy’ – The Happy Prince and The Selfish Giant. The Canterville Ghost, The Nightingale and the Rose, The remarkable Rocket, The Birthday of the Infanta, The Happy Prince et The Selfish Giant sont entrés de manière indélébile dans la mémoire des lecteurs qui, comme Wilde disait lui-même, « ont conservé les qualité infantiles de l’émerveillement et de la joie ».
