For lucidity and compactness of style, James's short novels, or novelles, are shining examples of his genius. Few other writings of the century have so captured the American imagination. When "Daisy Miller," the tale of the girl from Schenectady, first appeared in 1878, it was an extraordinary success. James had discovered nothing less than "the American girl"--free spirited, flirtatious, an innocent abroad determined to defy European convention even if it meant scandal . . . or tragedy. But the subtle danger lurking beneath the surface in "Daisy Miller" evolves into a classic tale of terror and obsession in "The Turn Of The Screw." "The imagination, " Henry James said to Bernard Shaw, "has a life if its own." In this blood-curdling story, that imagination weaves the lives of two children, a governess in love with her employer, and a sprawling country house into a flawless story, still unsurpassed as the prototype of modern horror fiction. " "The Turn Of The Screw" seems to have proved more fascinating to the general reading public than anything else of James's except "Daisy Miller.""--Edmund Wilson

評分作者清凉 亨利·詹姆斯的小说《螺丝在拧紧》出版于1898年,是哥特小说流行的十九世纪,透着维多利亚时期的阴郁风,直到现在人们还被这股风吹着,去年网飞上线了一部美剧《鬼庄园》就是改编自这部小说。 小说的故事其实很简单,女主受雇于一名有钱的绅士,让她给住在偏远山庄的...
