margaux_s 's review for:
The Happy Prince and Other Tales
by Oscar Wilde
Oscar, baby, why do you have to make me cry like that?
"The Happy Prince" and "The Nightingale and the Rose" were my favorites here. The other three in my edition were "The Selfish Giant", "The Devoted Friend" and "The Remarkable Rocket".
Not all stories were equally as good, but I did enjoy the exploration of the themes of friendship, love, selfishness, selflessness, and compassion - not the biggest fan of the religious part. This said, the imagery was lovely, the language was rich and the morals were accessible.
I expected happy endings and got life lessons.
Justice for the nightingale.
