FAIRY TALES OF OSCAR WILDE ILLUMINATED ED

(W) Oscar Wilde (A) Yuko Shimizu

Oscar Wilde's fairy tales are some of his most elegant and charming pieces of writing. He produced two books of fairy tales, The Happy Prince and Other Tales and A House of Pomegranates. They've rarely been collected in one volume, and never with stunning artwork by Yuko Shimizu, one of the modern masters of illustration and graphic art. Wilde's original fairy tales are moving, sweet, sad and magical, much like Yuko's artwork. Yuko is one of the most celebrated and admired editorial illustrators in the world, and her work is perfectly aligned with Wilde's witty, rueful voice. The edition also features an original introduction by the Pulitzer Prize winning novelist Michael Cunningham.
