Présentation de l'éditeur :
The Canterville Ghost by Oscar Wilde is a short story. Like many works of literature, the story first appeared in a magazine, The Court and Society Review in February 1887. The Canterville Ghost is a story of contrast – American vs. British Society. When the story starts, the American minister, Mr Hiram B. Otis has purchased Canterville Chase, an English country house. Otis is warned by Lord Canterville that the house is haunted, but he doesn’t believe in ghosts- at first! This is not a typical ghost story. It is funny, and likely you will laugh out loud a lot while reading the book. This classic title has been published by RADLEY BOOKS.
