Otra vuelta de tuerca is one of the most important works of North American literature, and the most famous work by Henry James. The story begins when a governess arrives at the Bly mansion to begin her job of taking care of the two orphaned children who live there. Just like Victorian mansions of classic Gothic literature, this house guards secrets which the governess tries to uncover. This is a quintessential novel of its time, and a true American classic with themes that are still relevant today.
