This story is from a collection of Wilde's fairy tales, published in his House of Pomegranates in the late nineteenth century.
A Spanish princess is celebrating her twelfth birthday with the typical trappings of fairy tales: talking flowers, birds, animals, and scores of native children, all of which adore her.
Then an unusual creative also comes to pay her homage and entertain her. The story is worth the read to its chilling end.
