Description
The Turn of the Screw and Other Stories by Henry James A young governess is tasked with the care of two children at a grand country house, but she soon becomes convinced that the estate is haunted by malevolent forces. As she struggles to distinguish reality from her own imagination, the lines between good and evil become increasingly blurred. This collection of ghost stories, including 'The Turn of the Screw', explores the darker aspects of human nature and the supernatural. With its subtle and self-conscious tone, it offers a thought-provoking and unsettling reading experience. Oxford World's Classics edition includes a new introduction and notes, providing a wealth of additional information for readers.
