A House of Pomegranates
by Wilde, Oscar
Illustrated by King, Jesse M., Robinson, Charles, Robinson, W. Heath, Tarrant, Margaret
Wilde's second collection of fairy tales, originally published in 1891, following "The Happy Prince" in 1888. The volume includes "The Young King," "The Birthday of the Infanta," and "The Star-Child." While these stories are clearly intended for a younger audience, Wilde, with typical sardonic quip declared that the stories were "intended neither for the British child nor the British public."
