Il fantasma di Canterville e il delitto di Lord Savile by Oscar Wilde
"Il fantasma di Canterville e il delitto di Lord Savile" by Oscar Wilde is a collection of short stories published in 1891. This volume presents semi-comic mystery tales where the supernatural meets the mundane in unexpected ways. A nobleman discovers his destiny is murder before marriage. An American family confronts a centuries-old ghost who finds them more troublesome than terrifying. A mysterious woman guards secrets that may not exist. A generous act
of charity transforms a poor man's fortune. Wilde weaves irony and wit through stories where appearances deceive and outcomes surprise. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
