Beschreibung

The greatest ghost story in the English language, Henry James' The Turn of the Screw is a hauntingly atmospheric tale of supernatural events.

A young governess takes over the charge of two orphaned siblings, Miles and Flora, in a large, isolated country house. Unguided and almost entirely alone, the governess attempts to bring normality and joy into the children's lives but quickly comes to believe that something sinister is threatening her new charges. Is an intruder lurking within the house's grounds or could a more malevolent, ghostly force be behind the terrifying events at Bly Manor?

Originally published in 1898, The Turn of the Screw remains an excellent exploration of human psychology and is known as a masterful example of the written ghost story. This spine-chilling novella is perfect for fans of classic horror fiction, or those with an interest in the work of Henry James.

Über den Autor
Henry James (1843 - 1916) was an American-born British writer. He is regarded as one of the key figures of 19th-century literary realism. He was the son of Henry James, Sr. and the brother of philosopher and psychologist William James and diarist Alice James. He is best known for a number of novels showing Americans encountering Europe and Europeans. His method of writing from a character's point of view allowed him to explore issues related to consciousness and perception and his style in later works has been compared to impressionist painting. His imaginative use of point of view, interior monologue and unreliable narrators brought a new depth to narrative fiction.
