Oscar Wilde's 'A House of Pomegranates' is a queer production, queerly illustrated with very dim and indistinct cartoons of an aggravating unintelligibility. It is a collection of apologues, or fairy tales, or what you will. It is written in a kind of imitation of Biblical style, and it does not suggest or amount to much, however regarded.
