#LasRazonesDeGeorgina Es una historia corta que se desarrolla en Nueva York y Nápoles. Una historia en la que solo Georgina sabrá sus razones, pues tiene un matrimonio con una persona a quienes sus padres no aceptan y que mantiene oculto de su familia y la sociedad en general. Tiene un hijo al que abandona para no ser descubierta y finalmente un nuevo matrimonio que carece de legalidad por estar previamente casada pero que no confiesa a su nuevo esposo y tampoco desea divorciarse de su primer matrimonio. #AmoLeer #HenryJamesBooks

The American fiction writer Henry James. “Live all you can; It’s a mistake not to. It doesn’t so much matter what you do in particular, so long as you have your life. If you haven’t had that what have you had? Do what you like so long as you don’t my mistake. For it was a mistake. Live!” Henry Hames’ great enquiry into the pathos of opportunity among Americans in Paris. #HenryJames #HenryJamesBooks #HenryJamesWriter #HenryJamesFiction #EuropeansSeenThroughAmericanEyes #EuropeAndHenryJames #AmericanFiction #Americanwriters #HenryJamesStorytelling #Storytelling #HenryJamesAnAmerican #HenryJamesInParis #ParisIn1900s #ParisInHenryJames’Time #HenryJamesInEurope #HenryJamesReappropriation #HenryJamesPathos #USALiteraryBackwater #USATheNewWorld #EuropeanCulture #EuropeanOldWorld

Rarest/vintage/collectable book ✨ Edition: 1995 Publication: Bantam pathfinder (Hardcover/ Clothbond) Pages: 571 Price: 860/- Description: Since his death in 1916, Henry James’s prediction that "some day, all my buried prose will kick off its various tombstones at once" has come true. James, along with Mark Twain, was instrumental in the evolution of the modern American novel. But whereas the more popular Twain relied on homespun, folksy subjects, James was more cosmopolitan and influenced by a wide variety of innovative English, French, and Russian writers. James was a true "literary master" who tirelessly experimented with his writing to expand the accepted boundaries of American fiction. James is considered the father of the psychological novel. Ahead of his time, it was not until the 1930s that the American public finally became sufficiently sophisticated to understand and appreciate James's accomplishments and influence. The novels and novellas contained in this collection - Daisy Miller: A Study, The Portrait of a Lady, The Aspern Papers, and The Turn of the Screw are among his finest achievements as well as his most popular. #henryjames #henryjamesbook #henryjamesbooks #henryjamesselectedwork #worksofhenryjames

🎬 The Wings of the Dove (1997) Have you ever experienced a movie that not only captures your attention but plants vivid images in your mind, becoming a cherished part of your life? This classic has done just that, weaving itself into the tapestry of my memories. This is the most affecting adaptation of Henry James’s dense and difficult novel. Hossein Amini received an Oscar nomination for the film’s script, and it is not hard to see why. It is a literate, deliciously dark and beautifully nuanced script that is never devoid of emotion, and adapts very difficult source material remarkably cleverly and with utmost coherence. Whenever I feel shattered and on the verge of surrender, I turn to this movie, and it miraculously eases my pain, casting a luminous glow over my life. I can’t quite explain it, but its magic works every single time. ✨🎥💖

My Writing Influences continued... During my early years, I read everything I could find on Antarctic exploration. I appreciated Anthony Trollope and spent a good long while engaging with the works of Henry James. I like Donna Tartt and Kamila Shamsie, and so many more. Who are your writing influences?

👻Review-The Turn of the Screw👻 Happy Thursday bookworms! I hope you’ve been having a good week so far 🥰 Reading wise my week is going well but I’ve also been having horrible headaches every day. I’m hoping it’s just allergies and it goes away when the weather finally settles down 🙈 My first read of October was The Turn of the Screw by Henry James, a classic ghost story! It could be confusing and slow at times, with the pacing feeling a bit disjointed with how some of the descriptions were written. I ended up lost in the prose and having to reread passages. I liked that the narrator is unreliable. The book takes an Interesting look at the corruption and death of innocence paired with attempts at heroism going wrong. I also enjoyed the subtlety of the horror, it’s creepy and unnerving as you try to figure out what’s real and try to find answers to the character’s secrets. The ending was a little open ended, leaving it to the reader to decide what happens in some aspects. It was satisfying but also somehow underwhelming. Overall a perfect creepy, gothic horror story! But one I probably shouldn’t have read before bed 😂 Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (4/5) TW/CW: child death, death (off page), child abuse (brief) QOTD what are you currently reading?

▪︎"Το στρίψιμο της βίδας και Τα χαρτιά του Άσπερν", Χένρι Τζέιμς Ίσως το πιο γνωστό μυθιστόρημα του Τζέιμς, "Το στρίψιμο της βίδας" είναι μια τρομακτική ιστορία φαντασμάτων που παίζει με το μυαλό των πρωταγωνιστών της αλλά και του αναγνώστη. Μια νεαρή κοπέλα αναλαμβάνει ως γκουβερνάντα δύο παιδιών σε μια εξοχική έπαυλη της αγγλικής υπαίθρου. Πριν περάσει πολύς καιρός, αρχίζουν να συμβαίνουν ανεξήγητα γεγονότα και μια αίσθηση κακού πλανάται στην ατμόσφαιρα. "Τα χαρτιά του Άσπερν" είναι η ιστορία ενός ιστορικού της λογοτεχνίας που είναι αποφασισμένος να αποκτήσει τα γράμματα ενός σπουδαίου ποιητή με κάθε τίμημα. Δύο εκπληκτικές ιστορίες από έναν συγγραφέα με πένα πολύ πιο μπροστά από την εποχή του και προσωπικά πολύ αγαπημένο μου, που σίγουρα θα απολαύσετε. Στα ελληνικά δεν υπάρχει κοινή έκδοση με τις δύο ιστορίες. ▪︎"The Turn of the Screw and The Aspern Papers", Henry James One of the most famous James' tales, "The Turn of the Screw" is the tale of a young governess sent to a country house to take care of two children. Not long after her arrival, strange things begin to happen and a sense of evil in the house makes everything seem spooky. "The Aspern Papers" is the tale of a literary historian determined to get some letters by a great poet at all costs. Two brilliant scary stories by an author who wrote very modern stories for his time. I love his writing and I cannot recommend them enough and I'm sure you will enjoy them. #themotherofbooks #thebookqueen #bibliophile #books #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #booklover #booknerd #bookish #bookdragon #bookworm #bookobssesed #passionforbooks #bookcommunity #read #reader #reading #booknookstagram #henryjames #henryjamesbooks #theturnofthescrew #theaspernpapers #haunting #ghoststories #syros #ermoupoli #greece #island
It’s been 15+ years since I read any Henry James. I don’t know why, because I don’t do it with every other “classic” male author, but for some reason I always compared James’ work with his female contemporaries and just shrugged him off back in the days when he was assigned reading. I think I’ll give him another chance and see how things look to me now. At some point, at least. Let’s be honest, he’s not high priority on my TBR. Henry James isn’t going anyplace any time soon. Has anyone else got a deep appreciation for James who can stoke my enthusiasm? I can acknowledge I’ve been biased but that’s not quite the same as being jazzed to try again, is it? #henryjames #henryjamesbooks #classicliterature #classiclit #britishauthor #britlit #bookreaders #bookreading #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #booksta #bookish #fantasyphotography #booktopia #bookstagramaesthetic #booksbooksandmorebooks #booksofig #bookstagramfeature #instareads #reader #readers #reading #readingisfun #bookstagramchallenge #booknerd #bookaddict #bookworm #bookdragon #booktography #bookphotography
Good day! There is one place I want to travel today - it is Henry James’s “Wings of Dove”. H. James is, probably, my favorite classical American male writer. His both male and female protagonists are given equal space and attention. His writings with meticulous and honest examination of human nature, scrupulous attention to detail, preciseness in observance of social conventions suggest broad life experience and true wisdom. To me, he is different - authentic and deep. His characters feel so real. I wonder if “Wings of Dove” is going to be as good as the rest. Have you read any of H.James’s novels? Which ones are your favorite? #bookstagram #newbookstagrammer #bookstagramphotochallenge #bookstagrammer #morningwithbook #booksaremylife #bookswithflowers #booksandsunshine #good vibes #goodday #goodlife #booksanddaisies #daisies #daisies🌼 #readingmore #readmorebooks #novels #bookstagrammers #booksaremylife #booksareus #booksaremagic #booksarelove #readmorebooks #readmore #henryjames #wingsofdove #henryjamesnovels #henryjamesbooks #classics #classicalnovel #classicalbooks #novel
Viime viikolla käsiini osui sattumalta lukioaikainen kirja-arvostelu Henry Jamesin teoksesta "Washingtonin aukio". Etsin jotakin ihan muuta, mutta tämä löytö sai istumaan alas ja palauttamaan mieleen vanhan tarinan varakkaasta tohtori Sloperista ja tämän tytärrukasta, Catherinesta. Tarinassa eletään 1850-luvun New Yorkissa ja kirjan tapahtumat sijoittuvat tohtori Austin Sloperin komean katon alle, jonka hän jakaa yhdessä tottelevaisen ja vaatimattoman tyttärensä, Catherinen kanssa. Tohtori käsittelee jälkikasvuaan kaikkena muuna kuin järkiperäisenä olentona, eikä mielly vähääkään Catherinen ympärillä pörräävään kosijaan, Morris Townsendiin, jota hän pitää pelkkänä onnenonkijana. Tohtorin ollessa leski ja äitihahmon puuttuessa Catherine saa neuvonsa tohtorin hieman hupsulta sisarelta, Lavinia Pennimanilta, joka on sitoutunut veljentyttärensä kasvatukseen ja joka asuu heidän kanssaan. Rouva Penniman on paitsi teatraalinen, myös vannoutunut romantikko. Viaton Catherine joutuu tahtomattaan isänsä ja Herra Townsendin pelinappulaksi leikissä, jonka sääntöjä hän ei itse lainkaan ymmärrä. Pitkän ajan jälkeen päädyin lukemaan muutaman luvun tästä Jamesin kuivan huumorin mestariteoksesta ja se sai edelleen hymyn huulille. Kirja lähes liioittelee aikansa monimutkaista seurapiirielämää ja on juuri siksi niin viihdyttävä. Kukaan ei säästy tohtori Sloperin ironisilta heitoilta ja sen vastapainona Lavinia-tädin puuttuminen tilanteeseen yhdessä eksyksissä olevan, nuoren Catherinen suojakilpenä luo herkullisen asetelman talon seinien sisäpuolelle. Jamesin kirja on vivahteikas ja koomisen dramaattinen kurkistus aikakautensa elämästä keskellä New Yorkia. Kersti Juvan sukkelat sanamuodot rivi toisensa perään ovat onnistuneita ja teos itsessään on ihastuttava tuulahdus vanhaa Amerikkaa sekä sen normiviidakossa kouristelevia asukkaita. Ehdottomasti genrensä parhaimmistoa! #otavankirjat #kirjagramsuomi #henryjames #washingtoninaukio #kerstijuva #kirjallisuus #lukusuositus #henryjamesbooks

Review and 𝐆𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐲! 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐞 by Dinitia Smith. Thanks to @meryl_moss and @booktrib for the gifted Arc ⭐️⭐️⭐️ A modern retelling of The Golden Bowl, we look at a wealthy, naive woman, her father and the prince that comes between them. This book definitely kept my interest. The anticipation slowly builds until you know it has to come to a head. I was expecting a pretty wild climax, but that wasn’t the case. The story and ending unfolds genuinely and without unrealistic theatrics. While I expected a bit more fire at the end, I appreciate what the author did and enjoyed the story. It was a fast read and entertaining. I wish I had read The Golden Bowl already! “𝘏𝘦 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘢 𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘯 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥, 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘯𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘢 𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘦, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘢 𝘥𝘦𝘦𝘱 𝘶𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘳𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘺.” The Prince comes out 3/1. 📸: Thank you to @downlitebedding for the Ahhhmazing Comforter.

As mentioned on a previous post, after watching @netflixuk series The Haunting of Bly Manor, I really wanted to read some Henry James stories! It’s definitely me as I found reading these so similar to when I was reading Shirley Jackson’s The Haunting of Hill House and it’s the language and the way conversations are constructed that I just find so hard to follow that I’m completely missing the ‘horror’ side to the stories I would love to get through some more books and perhaps come back to some more Henry James stories in the future as they’re still so many that the Netflix series touches on that are on my book list. It’s so frustrating as I know they’re all fantastic and hold a suspense throughout reading them awaiting the grand finale - the big BOO! But they just wasn’t for me at this moment in time! William Shakespeare is more easy to follow than these 😂🤷🏻♀️ #bookstagram #bookgrammer #lovereadingbooks #readerlife #booknerd #readersofinstagram #booklover #booksofinstagram #henryjames #gothichorror #shortstories #theturnofthescrew #thejollycorner #theromanceofcertainoldclothes #horror #henryjamesbooks #henryjamesstories

«La imaginación literaria» se compone de una producción del conocido novelista que cabría etiquetar como «crítica literaria». Algunas cartas y escritos autobiográficos que muestran el estilo de su escritura y los impulsos y vivencias que le acompañaron toda su vida, críticas de escritores contemporáneos suyos, además de ensayos que escribió sobre la novela, la crítica, el oficio de escritor y el arte de la ficción.Henry James (Nueva York, 1843- Londres, 1916) recibió una educación ecléctica y cosmopolita, que se desarrolló en gran parte en Europa. En 1875 se estableció en Inglaterra. El conflicto entre la cultura europea y la norteamericana está en el centro de muchas de sus obras, desde su primera novela, «Roderik Hudson» (1875), hasta la triología que culmina su carrera: «Las alas de la paloma» (1902), «Los embajadores» (1903) y «La copa dorada» (1904). Murió en Londres en 1916. #filosofia #literatura #frases #frasesdelibros #asuncion #paraguay #citas #frasesdeliteratura #libros #frasesinspiradoras #frasesdeamor #frasesmotivadoras #frasesdelavida #filosofiadevida #filo #filosofias #henryjames #henryjamesquote #henryjamesquotes #henryjamespapergoods #henryjamessaddlery #henryjamesbooks #laimaginacionliteraria

Otra vuelta de tuerca, de Henry James. 🔩Una historia de fantasmas ambientada en la época victoriana: una atmósfera densa, una mansión de oscuros pasillos, la luz de unas velas, una joven e impresionable institutriz, presencias misteriosas y un@s hermos@s e inteligentes niñ@s que encarnan la bondad y la inocencia, o no? 🔩 El diario de la institutriz nos lleva a esta historia confusa y desconcertante. Todo queda velado, insinuado, ambiguo,lleno de sobrentendidos que parecen esconder verdades escabrosas o secretos impronunciables, a la vez que no sabemos si los silencios asienten o niegan. 👻Sin ser la lectura espeluznante que esperaba -aunque he tenido mis momentos de inquietud-, no me ha decepcionado, al contrario. Reconocer esa doble intención le ha añadido un puntito muy interesante a la novela y la he disfrutado un montón. Eso si, el final me ha dejado como si hubiera visto un fantasma!!👻🤭 Opiniones y teorías para todos los gustos en la tertulia de #clásicosflash, de la que algun@s han salido con la intención de leer más al autor y otr@s con la promesa de pensárselo antes 😉😉 #clásicosflash #henryjames #otravueltadetuerca #henryjamesbooks #historiasdefantasmas #fantasmas #leoclásicos #ponunclásicoentuvida #blymanor #vivirmilvidasleyendo #lectoradicta #leequetele #lecturas2021 #bookstagramespañol #bookstagram #bookstagramespaña #igreader #igbooklovers #instabook #librosymáslibros #librosdeinstagram #igbookstagram #bookstagramersunidos #reseñatreyu
Clásico de domingo #clásicosflash Los papeles de Aspern, de Henry James. 📖Un editor norteamericano, devoto del poeta Jeffrey Aspern, descubre que la que fue su musa, Juliana Bordereau, ya nonogenaria, aun vive. En la certeza de que la anciana posee documentos inéditos del poeta, viaja hasta Venecia donde Juliana vive recluida con su sobrina Tita en un decadente palacete. 📖Mi primera lectura de Henry James ha sido esta novela, envuelta en un halo gótico y sombrío, con una trama sencilla pero cargada de intriga, una intriga sutil y afilada que asoma y va en aumento conforme vamos conociendo a los personajes. 📖Porque del editor conocemos sus intenciones y su ferviente deseo por los papeles, pero apenas nada de Juliana y de Tita, sometidas a una época en la que un buen matrimonio era lo único a lo que podian aspirar las mujeres de su clase, pero que se desvelarán como osadas estrategas en esta historia de ambición y engaño. 📖Superadas las primeras páginas para situarme en la época y hacerme con esa prosa adornada de frases largas, ha sido una buena lectura y me anima a seguir descubriendo más obras del autor. 📰 Los papeles de Aspern fue publicada por fascículos en 1888 y como libro en 1889. Inspirada por una doble historia real: un norteamericano obsesionado por unas cartas del escritor Shelley y haber conocido, el propio autor, a una dama que fue amante de Lord Byron. #henryjames #lospapelesdeaspern #clásicosflash #henryjamesbooks #clásicodedomingo #domingodeclásico #ponunclásicoentuvida #novelacorta #shortnovel #clásicosuniversales #leoclásicos #lectoradicta #vivirmilvidasleyendo #leequetele #librosdeinstagram #igreader #instabook #amoloslibros #bookish #booklovers #bookstagram #bookstagramespaña #bookaholic #bookaddict #québelloesleer #bookstagramersunidos #bookatreyu
Giro di vite di Henry James @newtoncomptoneditori Pro: capitoli brevi, stile scorrevole e piacevole, ottima caratterizzazione dei personaggi, la migliore atmosfera gotica in cui mi sia mai immersa 🖤 Contro: sembra sempre che stia per succedere qualcosa ma poi non succede mai nulla di rilevante, i fantasmi mi fanno arrabbiare un sacco più che spaventarmi, la trama non chiara che il lettore deve interpretare come meglio crede, il finale mi ha lasciata così 😐 Se amate il genere gotico non potete non leggerlo, da questo punto di vista è un capolavoro ❤️ #readingthedarkchallenge @sonosololibri @louchobi gotico scritto prima del 1900 #dichegenereseifatto @imieiamicidicarta @sognidi_carta genere classico 7/30 #sfidadelloscaffalestrabordante @sbarbine_che_leggono #henryjames #henryjamesbooks #girodivite #girodivitehenryjames #gotico #goticbooks #librifantasmi #classicogotico

Independentemente da interpretação que se dê para a trama, A Outra Volta do Parafuso é um livro que demonstra o grande talento de Henry James e que assusta o leitor de uma forma ou de outra.

"I always want to know the things one shouldn't do." "So as to do them?" asked her aunt. "So as to choose," said Isabel" . Isabel Archer is very human. I respect her independence, spirit, and her determination to be herself and choose the life she wants. Of course, the freedom of choice has its consequences, which can be positive or negative. . Being a reader, you can, in many cases, see things before the main character senses them. Henry James used this ability to put me in a whirlwind of frustration. Blast Isabel's over-confidence and unbending ways! . And the ending! At first I was shocked, but after contemplating Isabel's choice, I admired it. It wasn't necessarily her choice I admired, it was how Henry James ended this novel with the reader making a choice. Fascinating. . I enjoyed this book. I regret not reading it slower though. Henry James has a beautiful language and I feel I missed out on a lot of it by power reading. . What did you think of The Portrait of a Lady? Has anyone read The Turn of the Screw? I really want to tackle that book next. . #theportraitofalady #henryjames #henryjamesbooks #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #bookcommunity #booklover #bookaddict #bookworm #booksbooksbooks #books #classicbooks #classicbook #popularbooks #goodreads #bookclub #booknerd #recommendedbooks #bookrecommendation
Isabel Archer est une belle américaine pleine d'esprit, qui est emmenée en Europe par sa riche tante Touchett, pour pouvoir bientôt se marier. Mais Isabel, résolue à déterminer son propre sort, elle est aventureuse et très indépendante. Elle n'hésite pas à refuser deux prétendants éligibles. À la mort de son oncle anglais, elle hérite d'une grosse somme d'argent et voyage avec sa tante, Mme Touchett, dans sa villa italienne où elle finit par rencontrer, tomber amoureuse et épouser Gilbert Osmond. Toute sa famille et ses amis essaient de l’en dissuader, mais en vain, elle est irrésistiblement attirée par Gilbert Osmond, qui, sous son charme et sa culture, cache une cruauté infinie. Une histoire d'une intensité poignante et intense, l'histoire d'amour et de trahison de la belle Isabel. De toute évidence, il y a beaucoup plus d'intrigues dans l'histoire. Isabel Archer est l'une des plus grandes femmes de la littérature. Portrait de femme est une lecture stimulante qui ajoute un niveau de plaisir et de compréhension aux autres œuvre de Henry James. Les aperçus de la nature humaine transcendent le temps et l'espace. Oui, les phrases sont longues et mettent le lecteur au défi de porter une attention particulière au fil des mots. C'est ici l'un des grands plaisirs de la lecture! C’est un roman magnifiquement écrit qui présente le style d'écriture unique d'Henry James et aborde les coutumes et les différences sociales des américains, des anglais et des européens continentaux. Portrait de femme est exquis, confortable, parfois drôle, parfois triste et inoubliable. #portraitdefemme #portraitofalady #henryjames #henryjamesbooks #litterature #litteratureamericaine #reading #readingpassion #readingaddict #book #bookaddict #bookstagram #livre #passion #livrestagram #livreaddict #lecture #roman #americanlitterature

Ich liebe es, schön gestaltete Buchreihen in meinem Bücherregal stehen zu haben 🤗 und noch toller ist es, wenn ich mir selbst schöne Reihengestaltungen ausdenken darf 😍📚 die Bücher von Henry James haben alle bereits über 100 Jahre auf dem Buckel, lassen sich aber auch heute noch auf Grund der detailreichen Schilderung des Innenlebens der Figuren und der psychologisch vielschichtigen und sorgfältig gezeichneten Frauenfiguren wunderbar lesen. Welches Cover gefällt euch am besten?

Hello my lovely friends! I hope you are keeping well 💐 This is my tiny book stuck of Henry James’ novels! Read The Portrait of a Lady some years ago but never got around to these other two (The Golden Bowl and The Europeans). Have you read any of these? I shall get to them soon, I am currently reading The Crimson Petal and the White by Michael Faber. Saturday used to be a reading day but now everyday blends into another, and everyday feel like a Saturday! 😂😂 Have a lovely weekend. Stay safe! ❤️ . . . #saturdayvibes #saturdayreads #saturdayreading #henryjamesbooks #henryjamesnovels #theportraitofalady #weekendvibes #weekendmood #readersofinstagram #ilovereadingbooks #bookwormlife #booklover #booknerd #bookstagram #booksbooksbooks #booksofinstagram #writerssuperpower #naturalwriter #fanwriter #naturalwriters #blenddays #staysafe #literaryfiction #booksbooksbooks

#SantaResenha📚 Os Inocentes | Henry James | Editora Tecnoprint | 157p | 1958 | 4/5 ✨ ⠀ “𝚂𝚎 𝚘 𝚜𝚘𝚏𝚛𝚒𝚖𝚎𝚗𝚝𝚘 𝚍𝚎 𝚞𝚖 𝚒𝚗𝚘𝚌𝚎𝚗𝚝𝚎 𝚗𝚘𝚜 𝚘𝚙𝚛𝚒𝚖𝚎 𝚌𝚘𝚖𝚘 𝚊 𝚙𝚛𝚎𝚜𝚜𝚊̃𝚘 𝚍𝚘 𝚐𝚒𝚛𝚘 𝚍𝚎 𝚞𝚖 𝚙𝚊𝚛𝚊𝚏𝚞𝚜𝚘, 𝚒𝚖𝚊𝚐𝚒𝚗𝚎-𝚜𝚎 𝚘 𝚍𝚎 𝚍𝚘𝚒𝚜 𝚒𝚗𝚘𝚌𝚎𝚗𝚝𝚎𝚜! 𝚀𝚞𝚎 𝚍𝚒𝚛𝚒𝚊𝚖 𝚍𝚒𝚜𝚜𝚘?” ⠀ A narrativa começa como uma história dentro doutra história. Numa festa de Natal, somos apresentados à leitura de um aristocrata, Douglas, dos relatos de uma mulher que conhecera. ⠀ Contratada por um senhor rico para cuidar de seus casal de sobrinhos órfãos em Bly sendo sua governanta, estaria a completo cargo deles, e não deveria perturbar seu empregador para questão alguma. ⠀ Chegando à casa, se encanta pelo lugar e por seus pupilos, Flora e Miles. Porém logo situação, a mansão e seus amados prodígios, começam a mostrar comportamentos estranhos e a tornarem-se inquietantes enigmas. ⠀ O suspense e terror psicológico criados por Henry James em pleno século XIX são de grudar os olhos famintos nas páginas. Sua escrita é uma mistura do simples com o clássico, tornando a leitura, por mais datada que seja, ainda fluída. ⠀ O desconforto da incerteza é palpável e nos deixa um gosto amargo sobre o final abrupto e desesperançoso. Somos deixados com perguntas que nosso próprio julgamento decidirá o que, possivelmente, aconteceu de fato naquela mansão. ⠀ Atiçou a curiosidade sobre a obra? Fiz uma resenha mais detalhada no blog do Sangría Santa sobre mistérios da mansão de Bly e Flora e Miles, além de trazer a tradução de uma análise incrível do Sparks Notes acerca de três temas que rondam a narrativa de Os Inocentes (ou A Volta do Parafuso).

Buongiorno Lettori, oggi vi mostro un libricino meraviglioso adattissimo per questo periodo. Si tratta di un volumetto edito Lindau in cui Henry James scrive una vera e propria dichiarazione d'amore per Londra. Se siete appassionati di tutti quei libri con un sfondo un po' "british", non perdetevi questo volume. "Solo Londra riesce a trasformare in una passeggiata in campagna il percorso da Notting Hill a Whitehall. Si può percorrere tutta questa distanza camminando sempre su un'era soffice, delicata, in mezzo al canto degli uccelli, ai versi degli agnelli, al mormorio degli stagni, al fruscio degli alberi solenni. Sovente ho desiderato di essere un funzionario statale che abita in una comoda villetta di Pembridge, ad esempio, è che tutti i giorni va in ufficio a Westmister". _______________________________ #london #henryjames #henryjamesbooks #lindauedizioni #autumnbooks #autumn🍁 #autumnlover #letteraturavittoriana #letteraturainglese #books #bookstagram #istabook #librisulibri #leggeresempre #leggerelibri #letteratura
