The Canterville Ghost
A Halloween treat for you from the West Port – Oscar Wilde’s “The Canterville Ghost”, as read by multi-talented literary historian Owen Dudley Edwards. The tale takes place in an old English country house, Canterville Chase, which has just become the residence of an American gentleman, Hiram B. Otis and his family. Owen himself is an expert on fellow Irish wit Wilde, the quintessential rationalist Sherlock Holmes, and the inimitable P.G. Wodehouse. His many works include a book and play on the West Port’s very own Burke and Hare.
