A House of Pomegranates by Oscar Wilde is a collection of enchanting fairy tales, each imbued with the author's characteristic wit, eloquence, and moral sophistication. First published in 1891, this compilation diverges from traditional children's stories by weaving complex themes of love, sacrifice, and identity into its narratives. Wilde's tales are both ornate and poignant, reflecting his aesthetic ideals and deep insights into human nature and society. This first edition is a testament to Wilde's genius in using the fairy tale genre to explore and critique the social mores of his time.
First edition, pictorial title-page, 4 plates, illustrations and decorations Ricketts and Shannon, original pictorial cloth gilt, covers slightly worn, rubbed, discoloured, uncut, 1891. Shows signs of age.
