Over dit audioboek
A young governess, eager and innocent, arrives at a sprawling estate to care for two orphaned children. But Bly House holds a darkness beyond its dusty halls. Whispers on the wind, fleeting figures in the twilight, and a growing sense of dread begin to unravel the governess's sanity. Are the ghosts she claims to see real, or is a more insidious evil at play? Henry James' chilling masterpiece, The Turn of the Screw, will keep you guessing until the very last word. Prepare to be unsettled as you enter a world where innocence is threatened and the line between reality and delusion blurs. So sit back, turn up the volume, and let the haunting tale begin.
Over de auteur
Henry James, American novelist and literary critic, was born in 1843 in New York City. Psychologist-philosopher William James was his brother. By the age of 18, he had lived in France, England, Switzerland, Germany, and New England. In 1876, he moved to London, having decided to live abroad permanently. James was a prolific writer; his writings include 22 novels, 113 tales, 15 plays, approximately 10 books of criticism, and 7 travel books. His best-known works include Daisy Miller, The Turn of the Screw, The Portrait of a Lady, The Ambassadors, and The American Scene. His works of fiction are elegant and articulate looks at Victorian society; while primarily set in genteel society, James subtlely explores class issues, sexual repression, and psychological distress. Henry James died in 1916 in London. The James Memorial Stone in Poet's Corner, Westminster Abbey, commemorates him.
