«El famoso cohete» is Oscar Wilde's children's story, published by Ediciones Gaviota in paperback (72 pages, in Spanish).
The tale follows a vain rocket who, even after failing spectacularly, still believes himself the most famous in the world. Oscar Wilde wrote it as a fantastic fable against arrogance, a moral satire full of irony and humor. The narrative invites reflection on vanity and humility.
Gaviota junior collection, sixth edition. With illustrations by Julia Díaz Vergara and translation by Úrsula R Hesles.
Recommended for young readers aged 8 and up, also suitable for school reading in the early years of elementary school.
Oscar Fingal O'Fflahertie Wills Wilde was an Irish author, poet and playwright. After writing in different literary styles throughout the 1880s, he became one of the most popular and influential dramatists in London in the early 1890s. He was a key figure in the emerging Aestheticism movement of the late 19th century and is widely regarded as the greatest playwright of the Victorian era. Wilde is best known for his Gothic novel The Picture of Dorian Gray (1890), his epigrams, plays and bedtime stories for children, as well as his criminal conviction in 1895 for gross indecency and for practicing homosexual acts.
