The Canterville Ghost
The book contains stories and tales by Oscar Wilde, among which are the famous The Canterville Ghost, The Happy Prince, The Star-Child, and The Nightingale and the Rose. Wilde's stories combine romance and satire on society; they are ironic and... a bit sad, full of elegance and wit. His tales, written for adults, penetrate to the very heart, making one ponder the most important questions of existence and learn to be «reasonable, kind, eternal». A special place here is occupied by the amazing tale «The Canterville Ghost» – a mischievous parody of gothic literature, a touching story about a ghost doomed to forever live in a castle, who finds sympathy from the beautiful Miss Virginia, who helps him find eternal peace.
