The Fairy Tales of Oscar Wilde: An Illuminated Edition

Early in his career, Oscar Wilde produced nine original fairy tales. They've rarely been collected in one volume, and never before with the strange and ravishing images of Yuko Shimizu (THE UNWRITTEN, THE CAT MAN OF ALEPPO), one of the most celebrated illustrators in the world. As Pulitzer Prize-winner Michael Cunningham (THE HOURS) puts it in his introduction to the volume, this collaboration is a meeting of such extraordinary talents the book itself emanates the minute traces of a pulse. This oversized art book edition of a great and underrated classic is housed an an embossed and debossed foil-blocked slipcase, and produced using only the finest materials, including a cloth binding, acid-free paper, and the highest level of off-set printing in four colors. Wilde's tales are lyrical, enchanted, and often heartbreaking.
