The Turn of the Screw

by Henry James

A young governess arrives at a remote English estate to care for two beautiful, unnervingly perfect children — and begins to suspect that something is very wrong.

More than a century after its publication, The Turn of the Screw remains as unsettling and unresolved as ever. This Sequoia edition presents James's complete novella in a beautifully formatted text that lets the ambiguity speak for itself.
