About the Book

Una de las historias de fantasmas más inquietantes que se han escrito jamás. El clásico de Henry James que ha inspirado la serie La maldición de Bly Manor.


Otra vuelta de tuerca, la gran obra maestra de Henry James, es capaz de tejer una atmósfera inquietante y una tensión insoportable. Una joven institutriz es enviada a una casa de campo para hacerse cargo de dos niños huérfanos, Miles y Flora. Inquieta por un presagio oscuro dentro de casa, empieza a creer que algo o alguien malévolo está acechando a los niños. ¿Se trata de una presencia maligna y fantasmal o de una manifestación de algo completamente diferente?


Este relato se ha convertido en una de las historias de fantasmas más célebres de la historia y sus misterios están abiertos a una interpretación sin fin. Con una suprema habilidad, James se atreve a poner en duda la imagen de la infancia como momento inocente y paradisíaco, y consigue llevar el horror sobrenatural un paso más allá.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

One of the most unsettling ghost stories ever written. The classic by Henry James that inspired the series The Haunting of Bly Manor.


The Turn of the Screw, Henry James's masterpiece, masterfully weaves an eerie atmosphere and unbearable tension. A young governess is sent to a country estate to care for two orphaned children, Miles and Flora. Disturbed by a dark omen within the house, she begins to suspect that something--or someone--malevolent is haunting the children. Is it a ghostly presence or a manifestation of something entirely different?


This tale has become one of the most celebrated ghost stories in literary history, and its mysteries remain open to endless interpretation. With supreme skill, James dares to question the notion of childhood as an innocent, idyllic time, pushing supernatural horror to a deeper, more psychological level.



About the Author :
Tras dos estancias en Europa, Henry James (Nueva York, 1843 - Sussex, Inglaterra, 1916) publicó en 1875 su primera novela, Roderick Hudson. Más tarde, vivió durante dos años en París, donde conoció a algunos de los grandes maestros europeos de la época (Turgenev, Flaubert y Zola), quienes influyeron decisivamente en su estilo. En 1876, tras escribir El americano, se estableció en Inglaterra, donde publicó sus obras más conocidas: Daisy Miller (1879), Washington Square (1880), El sitio de Londres (1883), Los papeles de Aspern (1888), Lo que Maisie sabía (1897) y Otra vuelta de tuerca (1898), en las que demostró su habilidad para mostrar la lucha entre deseo y convención, y aportó una visión crítica de la moral americana. Para muchos, Henry James es el precursor de la novela psicológica moderna y una influencia clave en autores tan importantes como James Joyce y Virginia Woolf.

For many, Henry James is considered the precursor of the modern psychological novel and a major influence on such important authors as James Joyce and Virginia Woolf.
