Features: The essence of pure English, brilliantly talented, and charming Oscar Wilde is renowned as a "playwright of wit," but it was his fairy tales that truly brought him worldwide fame. Perhaps readers are already familiar with The Happy Prince, so let us revisit the beauty of childhood and quietly listen to three more wonderful stories here. In The Young King, a shepherd boy wearing a grass crown ascends to the throne. In The Star of the Sea, a young man seeks redemption to restore his beauty by finding his mother. In The Nightingale and the Rose, the nightingale sacrifices its life for love, as Wilde expresses the belief that true love is the highest form of beauty.
