The Turn of the Screw

The Turn of the Screw

Henry James

Description:

"The Turn of the Screw" is an intense psychological tale of terror. A Governess comes to live with and take care of two children. However, she's soon disturbed when she begins to see ghosts. James taunts the reader: is his only a ghost story or a fable of sexual repression -- and things best left unsaid? His famous story was turned into an opera, a play and a movie.
