Om den här boken

The four tales gathered here reveal Oscar Wilde’s gift for blending wit, irony, and moral reflection within the form of the short story.

Lord Arthur Savile’s Crime is a darkly comic exploration of fate and free will, where polite society collides with the absurd.

The Canterville Ghost playfully turns the traditional ghost story on its head, offering satire as sharp as it is humorous.

In The Sphinx Without a Secret, Wilde meditates on mystery and illusion, showing how beauty and enigma may dissolve under the scrutiny of truth.

Finally, The Model Millionaire provides a tender moral fable, reminding us that generosity and kindness carry more value than wealth or charm.

Head Stories Audio presents "Oscar Wilde - Four Stories", with narration and original music by Simon Hester.
