Beschreibung

In an ancient English mansion surrounded by fog and secrets, a young governess accepts the task of caring for two orphaned children, whose innocence soon begins to seem too perfect. Isolated from the world and with no company but the servants and the echoes of the past, the governess starts to perceive strange figures in the gardens, apparitions that no one else seems to see or admit.

Narrated with subtle and immersive mastery, The Turn of the Screw is a haunting work that continually challenges the reader's perception. Henry James weaves a story where the real and the imagined intertwine until they become indistinguishable, exploring the boundaries between reason and fear, truth and suggestion.

    The classic American novel of a philandering, murderous preacher from the national bestselling author of God’s Little Acre.    When preacher Semon Dye moves into the tiny Georgia town of Rocky Comfort, many of its citizens welcome him. After all, the only church in town is being used to store fertilizer. But sermons aren’t the first thing on the mind of the tall, magnetic, and utterly dissolute man. Other callings take priority: women, whiskey, gambling, and hiding from the law. Even as he seduces wives, cheats at cards, and provokes old feuds, Dye manages to cast a dark spell over all the people in Rocky Comfort.   Journeyman is a wicked send-up of religious fervor by an American master of dark political satire. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Erskine Caldwell including rare photos and never-before-seen documents courtesy of the Dartmouth College Library.
