Description: "Based on the New York Edition text, this third edition of Norton Critical Edition of The Turn of the Screw by Henry James features the popular horror story of a woman hired as a governess for two children at a desolate estate. As mysterious figures begin to appear and evil lurks in the shadows, the young governess is determined to protect the children at all costs. The "Contexts" in the Norton Critical Edition provide readers with excerpts of James' notebook entries and letters, illustrations, and other possible sources for The Turn of the Screw. "Criticism" includes reactions and reviews from as early as 1898 to more major and recent criticisms. A chronology and selected bibliography are also included"--
