Sang Nelayan dan Jiwanya

The stories play with social appearances and genuine virtue, but I wonder what Wilde was really saying about society's values and the nature of true generosity.

Wilde's wit is sharp and timeless, but some jokes felt very of their time. Are there moments that resonated differently for modern readers?

The stories seem to weave humor with moral reflections. I’m curious whether Wilde planned these lessons in advance or let them emerge naturally during writing.
