In Henry James' novel, The Turn of the Screw, readers are drawn into a complex and chilling narrative that blurs the lines between the supernatural and the psychological. Written in a style that is both intricate and suspenseful, the novel explores the mysterious events that unfold when a young governess is hired to care for two orphaned children in a remote English estate. As the governess becomes increasingly convinced that the children are under the influence of malevolent spirits, the reader is left to ponder the true nature of the haunting and the sanity of the protagonist. The Turn of the Screw is a prime example of Gothic fiction with its eerie atmosphere and ambiguous ending, leaving readers unsettled and questioning long after the final page. Henry James' expertly crafted tale delves into themes of innocence, corruption, and the thin line between reality and imagination, making it a must-read for fans of psychological horror and classic literature.

Henry James

Henry James was born in New York in 1843 and was educated in Europe and America. He left Harvard Law School in 1863, after a year's attendance, to concentrate on writing, and from 1869 he began to make prolonged visits to Europe, eventually settling in England in 1876.

His literary output was prodigious and of the highest quality: more than ten outstanding novels, including The Portrait of a Lady and The American; countless novellas and short stories; as well as innumerable essays, letters, and other pieces of critical prose. Known by contemporary fellow novelists as 'the Master', James died in Kensington, London, in 1916.
