The Turn of the Screw

"The Turn of the Screw" by Henry James is a gripping and eerie tale of psychological suspense. A young governess is hired to care for two orphaned children, Miles and Flora, at a remote English estate. As she settles into her duties, she begins to see apparitions of the previous governess and a sinister servant, believing they seek to harm the children. As paranoia and fear escalate, James masterfully blurs the lines between reality and imagination, plunging readers into a haunting exploration of innocence, evil, and the human psyche.
