Storia
Un ricco ministro americano, Hiram B. Otis, si trasferisce in Inghilterra e sceglie di abitare nell'antico castello di Canterville. Non si fa certo impressionare dalla leggenda che vuole il castello infestato da un vecchio fantasma, l'antico proprietario, Sir Simon, che uccise la moglie Lady Eleonore e scomparve nel nulla... "Il fantasma di Canterville" è una delle opere più conosciute e amate di Oscar Wilde, capolavoro di una scrittura al contempo raffinatissima e accessibile, intriso di ironia e di significati nascosti.

Storia
Perché gli adolescenti sono tristi? Da che cosa deriva il loro senso perenne di inadeguatezza nei confronti del mondo che li circonda? Come si articolano, e come si confrontano, esperienze psicopatologiche ed esperienze creative? Quali sono gli orizzonti problematici della psichiatria oggi? Sono inconciliabili tra loro, o sono possibili reciproche influenze? Sappiamo riconoscere il valore umano della malattia? Queste e altre domande articolano una riflessione sulle passioni fragili che appartengono alla nostra vita e alla nostra crescita.

A classic - dreadfully read
It is a short book/novella and a classic but I really struggled to listen to all of it. The narration is incredibly irritating with a peculiar inability to read English fluently, constant mispronounciation of English names and a sing song quality that somehow removes any expression and drama from the text.
