Oscar Fingal O’Flaherty Wilde was an Irish poet and playwright born in Dublin Ireland in 1854 and died in Paris, France in 1900 at the age of 46.
He wrote The Happy Prince in 1888.
What is wrong with reading a children’s story if you are an adult? They are simple and refreshing while being entertaining and often have a message that we, as adults, may have forgotten. Some of them are classics and there is a reason why generations of children grow up having read them. They are a part of our culture; an important part. And children’s stories take us back to when we were children. It’s good for the soul to make that visit back in time once in a while.
The Happy Prince by Oscar Wilde is one of those classics. It is about a swallow and a statue. It is about friendship and love.
