Sinopsis	STAR CHILD - LITTLE CLOTHBOUND CLASSICS Introducing Little Clothbound Classics: irresistible, mini editions of short works by the world's greatest writers, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith A Penguin Classic Hardcover With warmth, tenderness and quiet wit, Oscar Wilde's fables and fairy tales have moved and delighted for generations. In far-off kingdoms and ocean realms, in the company of giants and nightingales, Wilde speaks of heartbreak and redemption, of cruelty and compassion, of love lost, of love gained, of love lasting. Included in this selection are stories from The Happy Prince and A House of Pomegranates. OSCAR WILDE Oscar Wilde was born in Dublin on 16 October 1854. He studied at Trinity College, Dublin and Magdalen College, Oxford. He then lived in London and married Constance Lloyd in 1884. Wilde was a leader of the Aesthetic Movement. He became famous because of the immense success of his plays such as Lady Windemere's Fan and The Importance of Being Earnest. His only novel, The Picture of Dorian Gray, was first published in Lippincott's Monthly Magazine in 1890 but was revised in 1891 after moralistic negative reviews. After a public scandal involving Wilde's relationship with Lord Alfred Douglas, he was sentenced to two years' hard labour in Reading Gaol for 'gross indecency'. His poem The Ballad of Reading Gaol was published anonymously in 1898. Wilde never lived in England again and died at the age of forty-six in Paris on 30 November 1900. He is buried in Père Lachaise cemetery where admirers often leave the lipstick marks of kisses on his tomb. Edad recomendada: A partir de 8 años WILDE OSCAR Oscar Wilde nació en Dublín en 1854 y murió en París en 1900. Fue un escritor, poeta y dramaturgo de enorme importancia hacia el final de la época victoriana. Dueño de un estilo único, ingenioso, provocador e iconoclasta, es recordado por sus obras de teatro La importancia de llamarse Ernesto, El abanico de Lady Windermere, Una mujer sin importancia, La duquesa de Padua, entre otras, por los famosos cuentos El príncipe feliz o El gigante egoísta, y sobre todo por su única novela, El retrato de Dorian Gray. También escribió epigramas, poesía y textos periodísticos. Fue una personalidad de la cultura muy destacada en su tiempo, por lo que su prematura e injusta muerte tuvo un impacto que reverbera hasta hoy.
