Selected Stories by Oscar Wilde
Selected Stories by Oscar Wilde

Witty tales exploring human nature and morality.

If you're someone who delights in the whimsical yet incisive dissection of society and its mores, this collection will not disappoint. Wilde's prose dances with wit and an elegance that cloaks sharp social critiques. As you unravel the human condition through his narratives, you may find a reflection of truth that is as relevant today as it was in his time.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
