Аннотация

When a fortune teller sees murder in the palm of Lord Arthur Savile, there is only one possible solution. Lord Arthur must fulfil his fate before he can marry his great love, the sweetly innocent Sybil. In `The Canterville Ghost` a resourceful spook has the tables turned on him when he is terrorized by his new American owners. Other stories in this selection include `The Devoted Friend` and the intensely poignant `The Happy Prince`, considered among Wilde`s most popular short pieces for children, and `The Portrait of Mr W. H.`, a brilliant work of scholarly detection. Written between 1887 and 1891, at the height of his creative powers, these eight stories confirm Oscar Wilde`s reputation as a master storyteller in their sense of fun, quick intelligence and witty dissection of Victorian society. They also reveal his compassion for the poor and downtrodden who were so readily ignored by that age.
