A House of Pomegranates is a collection of fairy tales, written by Oscar Wilde, that was published as a second collection after The Happy Prince and Other Tales. Wilde once said that this collection was "intended neither for the British child nor the British public." The stories included in this collection are as follows: The Young King, The Birthday of the Infanta, The Fisherman and his Soul, The Star-Child.

This book comprises four tales and is a companion to The Happy Prince and Other Tales.

The stories in this book are:

The Young King: A young shepherd is taken to the palace to be crowned king.

The Birthday of the Infanta: A hunchback dwarf is given to the Spanish princess for her 12th birthday.

The Fisherman and his Soul: A young fisherman must lose his soul in order to be with the mermaid he loves.

The Star-child: A baby is found in the woods and is brought up by a woodcutter. He grows up to be handsome but cruel.

As with the stories in The Happy Prince, these tales can be read to children but are intended for adults, with an underlying morality to each tale.

Oscar Fingal O'Flahertie Wills Wilde (16 October 1854—30 November 1900) was an Irish writer and poet. After writing in different forms throughout the 1880s, he became one of London's most popular playwrights in the early 1890s. Today he is remembered for his epigrams and plays. As a playwright, he was on a par with Bernard Shaw. He is a particularly enthusiastic advocate of aesthetic art movement. His fairy tales have an enormous vogue among children.

Wilde once said that this collection was "intended neither for the British child nor the British public."
