The Emperor's New Clothes

Hans Christian Andersen

"But he has nothing on!" cried a little child. Many years ago, there lived an Emperor who cared so much for new clothes that he spent all his money on them. When two swindlers arrive in town promising to weave the most beautiful cloth—invisible to anyone who is unfit for their office or hopelessly stupid—the Emperor and his court are too proud to admit they see nothing. This masterful tale by Hans Christian Andersen is a sharp and funny critique of vanity, the fear of speaking the truth, and the power of collective delusion.
