Skruvens Vridning Ljudbok
Skruvens Vridning av Henry James<br/><br/>Handlingen i Skruvens Vridning tilldrar sig vid mitten av 1800-talet. i en ödsligt belägen herrgård på den engelska landsbygden. Detta är en spökhistoria i en berättartradition som i anglosaxiska länder kallas gothisk, högromantisk. En ung guvernant skall som sitt första arbete ta hand om två föräldralösa barn. De båda barnen visar sig besitta mycket speciella egenskaper. Det spänningsfält som skapas kring barnen leder fram till en dramatisk upplösning.<br/>Den svenska upplagan av boken är sedan länge slutsåld, men det gör inget en riktig spökhistoria skall berättas.<br/><br/>Henry James (1841-1916) var född i en förmögen amerikansk familj men flyttade tidigt till England och blev såsmåningom engelsk medborgare. han lämnade en begränsad litterär produktion efter sig. Han är i England och USA fortfarande en högsta grad en levande och mycket läst författare. Skruvens Vridning har filmats och gjorts TV-film otaliga gånger. Den mest kända filmatiseringen är sannolikt Jack Claytons version från 1961 gjord på ett manus av Truman Capote.<br/><br/>Ewa Fröling har gjort inläsningen av boken medan Sten Ljunggren läser inledningen.<br/><br/>Total speltid 4 timmar 12 minuter. Spår ca var femte minut.

Daisy Miller And The Turn Of The Screw Bok
<p><b>The Penguin English Library Edition of <i>Daisy Miller and The Turn of the Screw </i>by Henry James<br/></b><br/><b>"I'm a fearful, frightful flirt! Did you ever hear of a nice girl that was not?"</b><br/><br/>This edition contains two of Henry James's most popular short works.<br/><br/>Travelling in Europe with her family, Daisy Miller, an exquisitely beautiful young American woman, presents her fellow-countryman Winterbourne with a dilemma he cannot resolve. Is she deliberately flouting social convention in the outspoken way she talks and acts, or is she simply ignorant of those conventions? In <i>Daisy Miller</i> Henry James created his first great portrait of the enigmatic and dangerously independent American woman, a figure who would come to dominate his later masterpieces.<br/><br/>Oscar Wilde called James's chilling <i>The Turn of the Screw </i>'a most wonderful, lurid poisonous little tale'. It tells of a young governess sent to a country house to take charge of two orphans, Miles and Flora. Unsettled by a sense of intense evil within the houses, she soon becomes obsessed with the belief that malevolent forces are stalking the children in her care.<br/><br/>The Penguin English Library - 100 editions of the best fiction in English, from the eighteenth century and the very first novels to the beginning of the First World War.</p>

Letters To Isabella Stewart Gardner Bok
Surrounded by the artists, writers and musicians who made up her court in Boston as they did in Venice, Isabella Stewart Gardner, a passionate art collector, was as revered and sought after as royalty. Henry James was inspired by the rich and powerful Gardner, as well as by the Palazzo Barbaro in Venice, when he wrote his novel The Wings of the Dove. Gardner was to recreate a larger-than-life version of Palazzo Barbaro in Boston, which is now the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum. These dazzling letters bring to life James's passion for Venice and the Palazzo Barbaro, and serve as an introduction to the fascinating world of Isabella Stewart Gardner herself.
