"Quick, quick," cried the Ghost, "or it will be too late."

Wilde's clever parody provides an entertaining twist on the traditional gothic horror story. A materialistic American family moves into the English mansion of Canterville Chase, much to the annoyance of the resident ghost

This brilliant and often overlooked story is a wonderful commentary on how Wilde saw "free" America challenging "traditional" England - all under the guise of a charming, heartwarming and comical book.

Designed to encourage readers to enjoy classical literature, titles in the Classical Comics range stay true to the original vision of the authors. This title has been moderately and sympathetically abridged from the original text to fit within the graphic novel format, but still features the entire Wilde dialogue.

Like all of their titles, this Classical Comics production remains true to the original novel, and features incredible artwork that will engage any reader.

Notă biografică

Oscar Wilde wurde am 16. Oktober 1854 in Dublin geboren und starb am 30. November 1900 in Paris. Er war ein irischer Schriftsteller.

Wilde war das zweite von drei Kindern eines angesehenen Arztes und einer Übersetzerin. Durch die literarische Tätigkeit seiner Mutter bekam Wilde schon früh Kontakt zu kulturellen Kreisen und dem Schreiben.

Nach seinem Internatsbesuch studierte Wilde klassische Literatur in Dublin und reiste zu dieser Zeit schon nach Italien. Ab 1874 studierte er zusätzlich in Oxford, wo er ebenfalls mit Bravour abschloss. 1878 bekam sein Gedicht "Ravenna" erste öffentliche Aufmerksamkeit. Wilde zog nach London, wo er sich als extravaganter Dandy schnell einen Namen machte. Erste Werke wurden verlegt und er wurde 1881 in die USA eingeladen.

Als berühmter und gefeierter Dichter heiratete er eine Kinderbuchautorin, mit der er sich in London niederließ und zwei Söhne bekam.1886 lebte er erstmals seine Homosexualität aus und stand künftig der Ehe immer kritischer gegenüber. 1890 erschien mit dem Roman "The Picture of Dorian Gray" sein bekanntestes und zugleich als "anrüchigstes" angesehenes Werk.

Aufgrund seiner Kontakte zu männlichen Prostituierten wurde Wilde 1895 zu zwei Jahren Zuchthaus mit schwerer Zwangsarbeit verurteilt. Hier wurde seine Gesundheit dermaßen ruiniert, dass er sofort nach Entlassung nach Paris übersiedelte. Seine Letzten drei Lebensjahre verbrachte Wilde unter dem Namen "Sebastian Melmoth" verarmt und isoliert in einem Hotel.

Oscar Wilde starb mit 46 Jahren in Paris an den Folgen einer Mittelohrentzündung.
