Nel Fantasma di Canterville (1887) Wilde mescola ironia e orrore, patetico e sublime, in una storia originalissima che testimonia lo sconcertante impatto tra il razionalismo del Nuovo Mondo e il pathos romantico dei castelli inglesi. La sfinge senza enigmi (1894) e Il milionario modello (1887) sono due straordinari esempi dello stile brillante e mondano delle sue commedie, idolatrate dalla società vittoriana, mentre Il delitto di Lord Arthur Savile (1891) è la dimostrazione di come si possano coniugare verosimile e irrazionale in una storia di estrema piacevolezza.

What if the greatest gift ever given… was never truly understood? In "The Birthday of the Infanta", master storyteller Oscar Wilde weaves a hauntingly beautiful tale of innocence, beauty, and the fragile longing to be loved.

Have you ever met someone so full of themselves that even fireworks seem dull by comparison? In Oscar Wilde’s whimsical tale "The Remarkable Rocket", a pompous and self-important rocket believes himself destined for greatness, oblivious to the world around him.

La ironía, la honda melancolía y la inconfundible mirada desencantada de Oscar Wilde impregnan cada una de estas páginas, erigiéndose como un monumento paródico y duramente crítico hacia la sociedad victoriana de finales del siglo XIX.

Oscar Wilde já era reconhecido como um dos melhores autores de seu tempo quando foi condenado à prisão, em 1895.

Enquanto estava encarcerado, o autor escreveu uma carta a Lord Alfred Douglas, com quem mantinha uma relação que foi o estopim para sua prisão.

Have you ever loved so deeply that you would risk everything—even your own soul? In The Fisherman and His Soul by Oscar Wilde, follow a humble fisherman who falls in love with a beautiful mermaid and faces an impossible choice: to be with her, he must part with his own soul.
