Synopsis:

The Canterville Ghost is a short story written by Oscar Wilde. What the author achieves with this work is proof of his mastery, his knowledge of the literary language, and his ability to poignantly mix mystery and humor.

It is a narrative text that leaves the reader captivated from start to finish. It's about a ghost who, as usual, devises a plan to scare the new family that will move to Canterville Castle. The problem is that these people are not what he expected.

The Otis are part of a distinguished American family that is not impressed by the appearance of a simple ghost. This, logically, leaves the specter disconcerted and begins a conflict that finishes in an almost poetic way.

About the Author:

Oscar Wilde (1854–1900) was an Irish poet, playwright, and novelist, best known for his wit, flamboyant style, and sharp social commentary. He became one of the most prominent literary figures of the late Victorian era, gaining fame with works such as the novel The Picture of Dorian Gray and plays like The Importance of Being Earnest. Wilde’s writing often satirized Victorian society, exposing its hypocrisies with humor and elegance. Despite his literary success, his life took a tragic turn when he was imprisoned for 'gross indecency' due to his homosexuality, which was criminalized at the time. After his release, he lived in exile in France, where he died at the age of 46. Today, Wilde is celebrated as a brilliant writer and a symbol of artistic freedom and individuality.
