This book brings together two of Henry James's most outstanding works: 'Daisy Miller' and 'The Turn of the Screw'. In 'Daisy Miller', James rigorously analyzes social customs through a moral fable. 'The Turn of the Screw' challenges the traditional image of childhood, questioning its innocence and paradisiacal character. The stories explore the clash between American and European cultures, offering a critical view of national identity and social conventions.
Henry James was an American-British author. He is regarded as a key transitional figure between literary realism and literary modernism, and is considered by many to be among the greatest novelists in the English language. He was the son of theologian Henry James Sr. and the brother of philosopher and psychologist William James and diarist Alice James.
