The Turn of the Screw (Ornate Classics)

The Turn of the Screw is a gothic ghost story, described by Oscar Wilde as 'a most wonderful, lurid, poisonous little tale'. An unnamed governess lives in an isolated country house with her two charges. When the governess begins to see ghostly apparitions roaming the grounds, she does everything she can to protect the children, but the situation soon spirals out of control. This handsome pocket gift edition has real collector's appeal, featuring a facsimile of Henry James' signature on the title page, silver gilded page edges and beautifully designed endpapers.
