The Turn Of The Screw
Penguin 1st Edition, published 1946.
The Turn of the Screw, James's great masterpiece of haunting atmosphere and unbearable tension, tells of a young governess sent to a country house to take charge of two orphans, Miles and Flora. Unsettled by a dark foreboding of menace within the house, she soon comes to believe that something, or someone, malevolent is stalking the children in her care. Is the threat to her young charges really a malign and ghostly presence, or a manifestation of something else entirely?
Condition grading: Very Good. Some wear to spine ends. Some light foxing to both covers. Binding tight. The photographs form part of the description.
