Product Details
Overview
Toda la narrativa breve de uno de los clásicos más exquisitos de la literatura.
Este volumen ofrece toda la narrativa breve de Oscar Wilde, pequeñas joyas literarias que él calificaba de «estudios en prosa», pensadas tanto para niños como para adultos. Sus primeros relatos, entre los que encontramos «El Príncipe Feliz» y «El ruiseñor y la rosa», tienen ecos de Andersen, Hoffmann y de la tradición popular. En estas fábulas de exquisito lenguaje, el encanto reside en la ingenuidad y la bondad que exaltan.
En El crimen de lord Arthur Savile y otras historias, entre las que destaca el famoso relato «El fantasma de Canterville», Wilde da rienda suelta a su vena satírica y humorística, mientras que en Una casa de granadas, influido por el simbolismo decadente francés, se muestra mórbido, pagano y sensual, caminando triunfal por la belleza.
«Leyendo y releyendo, a lo largo de los años, a Wilde, noto un hecho que sus panegiristas no parecen haber sospechado siquiera: el hecho comprobable y elemental de que Wilde casi siempre tiene razón.» Jorge Luis Borges
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
The complete short fiction of one of the most exquisite classics of literature.
This volume offers Oscar Wilde's complete short fiction, little literary gems he called “studies in prose”, written for both children and adults. His early tales, including “The Happy Prince” and “The Nightingale and the Rose,” echo Andersen, Hoffmann, and folk tradition. In these exquisitely worded fables, the charm lies in the innocence and goodness they exalt.
In Lord Arthur Savile's Crime and Other Stories, which features the famous tale “The Canterville Ghost”, Wilde unleashes his satirical and humorous vein, while in A House of Pomegranates, influenced by French decadent symbolism, he is morbid, pagan, and sensual, triumphantly pursuing beauty.
“Reading and rereading Wilde over the years, I notice a fact his panegyrists scarcely seem to have suspected: the demonstrable and elemental fact that Wilde is almost always right.” Jorge Luis Borges
