  The Canterville Ghost

  Oscar Wilde

  "What happens when a centuries-old ghost meets a modern family that simply refuses to be scared?"
  
  For three hundred years, Sir Simon de Canterville has been the pride of the British supernatural world, haunting his ancestral home with bloodstains and rattling chains. But his reign of terror comes to a screeching halt when the Otis family, a group of pragmatic and unimpressed Americans, moves in. Armed with "Pinkerton's Champion Stain Remover" and "Rising Sun Lubricator" for his squeaky chains, the Otises treat the ghost not as a nightmare, but as a nuisance. In this brilliant satire, Oscar Wilde pits old-world tradition against new-world practicality, leading to a conclusion that is as moving as it is witty.
  
  The Comedy of Terrors: The humor lies in the ghost's growing frustration. Sir Simon takes his "haunting" as a serious profession, and his inability to frighten the rambunctious Otis twins leads to a hilarious reversal where the ghost becomes the victim of the living. It is a masterclass in the "Comedy of Manners."
  
  A Touch of True Redemption: Beyond the laughs, the story shifts gears when the young Virginia Otis encounters the weary ghost. Her compassion leads to a beautiful and poetic finale, exploring themes of forgiveness, death, and the power of love to bridge the gap between two worlds.
  
  Why It Is a Timeless Favorite: The Canterville Ghost is perfect for readers of all ages. It offers the biting social commentary Wilde is famous for, wrapped in a fast-paced, entertaining plot that moves from slapstick comedy to profound allegory in just a few pages.

  Victor-Marie Hugo (26 February 1802 - 22 May 1885) was a French poet, novelist, essayist, playwright, and dramatist of the Romantic movement. During a literary career that spanned more than sixty years, he wrote abundantly in an exceptional variety of genres: lyrics, satires, epics, philosophical poems, epigrams, novels, history, critical essays, political speeches, funeral orations, diaries, and letters public and private, as well as dramas in verse and prose.
  VOLUME 5: JEAN VALJEAN: The two most memorable barricades which the observer of social maladies can name do not belong to the period in which the action of this work is laid. These two barricades, both of them symbols, under two different aspects, of a redoubtable situation, sprang from the earth at the time of the fatal insurrection of June, 1848, the greatest war of the streets that history has ever beheld.
