About the book

This title offers an innovative revaluation of Wilde's two collections of fairy tales, 'The Happy Prince and Other Tales' and 'A House of Pomegranates'. Providing a comprehensive account of Wilde's familiarity with Irish folklore, this study challenges the prevailing consensus that the stories draw heavily on such material.
