The Fisherman and his Soul

When a young fisherman falls in love with a beautiful mermaid, he is faced with an impossible choice: to be with her, he must cast away his very soul. Thus begins a haunting journey through strange lands and spiritual trials, as his discarded soul, unwilling to be forgotten, takes on a life of its own.

In The Fisherman and his Soul, Oscar Wilde weaves a poetic and philosophical fable that explores the boundaries of love, the cost of desire, and the redemptive power of compassion. Rich in symbolism and moral depth, this enchanting story reminds us that the greatest truths often lie hidden in the depths of the heart. A timeless classic from one of literature's most luminous voices.
