Henry James

A cura di Annabel Pope
 
 A young governess is employed to take care of two beautiful and charming children who after a while turn out to have disquieting friends: the ghosts of a man and a woman who had been the servants of the country house.
 To defend her charges, the governess fights against these damned souls with all her strength. But are they real presences or hallucinations of a young woman’s sick mind?
 James’ artistry has made of this novel not only a literary masterpiece but also the object of a still ongoing psychoanalytic debate. The book also includes stimulating in-depth analyses.

 Ad una giovane istitutrice vengono affidati due bambini belli e affascinanti che ben presto si rivelano avere tra le proprie conoscenze esseri molto inquietanti: i fantasmi di un uomo e una donna che erano stati domestici della villa di campagna.
 La governante lotta con tutte le sue forze per difendere i piccoli da questi spiriti dannati. Ma sono presenze reali o allucinazioni della mente della giovane donna?
 La maestria di James ha fatto di quest’opera un caso non solo letterario, ma anche un oggetto di dibattito psicoanalitico ancora in corso.
