James, Henry - The Turn of the Screw (Published in by The Folio Society in 2022. One of the most celebrated ghost stories of all time, Henry James’s The Turn of the Screw is newly introduced by novelist and essayist ColmToibin, and beautifully illustrated by Audrey Benjaminsen for this superb Folio Society edition. Bound in printed and blocked textured paper. Set in Columbus. 168 pages. Frontispiece and 5 full-colour illustrations. Integrated black & white decorations, chapter headings and tailpieces. Printed endpapers. Printed slipcase. 8.75" x 5.5". It is Christmas Eve. A group of friends gathers by a roaring fire in an old country house, when one of their party promises a tale that: 'Nobody but me, till now, has ever heard. It’s quite too horrible.' Widely regarded as one of the greatest ghost stories of all time, The Turn of the Screw instantly grips the reader and doesn't let go until the final chilling cliffhanger. Newly introduced by ColmToibin, whose writings on James are essential reading, our gorgeously foreboding collector's edition is illustrated by renowned fantasy artist Audrey Benjaminsen, who plays on the dark heart of this disturbing and timeless tale with her ethereal and unsettling illustrations. )
