The Turn of the Screw

The Turn of the Screw

USD $ 9,99

Complete and unabridged, with 99 full-page plates by Werner Holmberg, Théodore Rousseau and Marinus Adrianus Koekkoek. A governess takes charge of two children in a country house and becomes convinced that two dead servants are still there and mean to have them. James gives you no way to settle whether she is right, and a century of readers has been unable to agree — the argument is the book. He dictated it aloud to a typist, which may explain the pressure of the voice. Ninety-nine plates, among them Fuseli and Goya, gather the haunted landscapes, night waters and shadowed houses that give this tale of uncertain ghosts its visual weather.

Henry James

Henry James

Autor

Henry James (Nueva York, 1843), hermano menor del conocido filósofo William James, es considerado uno de los más grandes escritores angloparlantes de todos los tiempos. Nacido en una familia rica e hijo de uno de los principales pensadores norteamericanos de su época, pasó gran parte de su juventud viajando por Europa y por los Estados Unidos, y estudió derecho en Harvard por un breve tiempo antes de dedicarse de lleno a la escritura. Es autor de 20 novelas, 112 historias breves, 12 obras de teatro y una buena cantidad de crítica literaria. En 1915 se nacionalizó inglés en solidaridad con su patria adoptiva y como rechazo a la negativa norteamericana de entrar a la guerra. Murió en Londres en 1916.
