Iscriviti per consentire a LibraryThing di scoprire se ti piacerà questo libro. Attualmente non vi sono conversazioni su questo libro. I have been eager to read this classic for years. I love a good classic especially a gothic ghost story like this one. The beginning started out fine but towards the middle I found my attention to be wavering. Some parts of the writing was confusing and wordy, and I ended up second guessing myself. All I wanted was to be pulled in into the mystery and feel the cringe in my spine, unfortunately, I never got that. Nevertheless, I do believe everyone is entitled to their own interpretation and opinion of the story. ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
In 1898, Henry James wrote a novella that would become one of the most famous and critically discussed ghost stories ever written, The Turn of the Screw. Three other examples of James's tales of the supernatural, "The Altar of the Dead," "The Beast in the Jungle," and "The Jolly Corner," are included in this edition. These texts reveal on both the thematic and narrative levels James's deepest concerns as a writer. The texts in this edition are all drawn from the New York Edition of James's works. The introduction traces the extensive critical debate around The Turn of the Screw, and situates the texts in contemporary discussions of the supernatural. Appendices include material on the tales' reception, James's writings on the supernatural, and the study of the supernatural in the nineteenth century.
