An arrogant, foolish minotaur with a ridiculously posh accent sets up shop right beside me.

Not with my contract ending at the end of the season. So why do I invite them to live with me after a plumbing disaster destroys her apartment? Because I'm addicted.

Nel Fantasma di Canterville (1887) Wilde mescola ironia e orrore, patetico e sublime, in una storia originalissima che testimonia lo sconcertante impatto tra il razionalismo del Nuovo Mondo e il pathos romantico dei castelli inglesi. La sfinge senza enigmi (1894) e Il milionario modello (1887) sono due straordinari esempi dello stile brillante e mondano delle sue commedie, idolatrate dalla società vittoriana, mentre Il delitto di Lord Arthur Savile (1891) è la dimostrazione di come si possano coniugare verosimile e irrazionale in una storia di estrema piacevolezza.
