The book opens with an unnamed narrators description of a party held one Christmas Eve in England at which some friends have gathered to share ghost stories. One of the partygoers, Douglas, says that he knows a particularly sinister ghost story about a governesss time spent taking care of a wealthy Londoners niece and nephew at a country estate haunted by two ghosts.The story is that a governess goes to an English country house to take charge of two orphaned children, Miles and Flora. The governess is told she must manage everything herself and not disturb the childrens uncle, who is their guardian. Soon the governess is alarmed when she sees an unknown man and woman around the estate, and the housekeeper informs her that the couple used to work there, but both died. The governess suspects that the children know more about these ghosts than they will admit to her, and fears for their safety.
The novel is complicated, its true. Long, ornate sentences, philosophical speculations of the characters, complex in their structure and further awareness of the phrase.. but.. this and not only the novel represents the uniqueness and sophistication. Restrained and at the same time shocking, harmonious and scary real. Did you know that among the higher aristocracy there are wolves in sheeps clothing?
The main character Katherine is a girl who does not differ in anything special, but is at the same time quite an enviable bride, she has a good dowry. And the bridegroom appears on the horizon, love, everything, but the father is against their relationship, because this Maurice squandered all his fortune, and aunt Catherine, on the contrary, for real happiness. The whole book revolves around the relationship between Catherine and Maurice, Maurice and the girls father, Catherine and the aunt. The book interestingly spelled out the characters, but still truly breathes the feeling of the time in question. This is the beauty of this work.
The young heroine matures through her perception of family problems. The aristocratic family fell apart: the parents decided to live separately, but Macy does not agree with this. The girl is looking for a way to reunite her mom and dad...
Zło jest żywiołem, któremu łatwo ulec Historia rozpoczyna się w Wigilię Bożego Narodzenia, gdy grupa przyjaciół zgromadzonych w starym dworze, przy kominku snuje opowieści o duchach. Jeden z obecnych opowiada trzymającą w napięciu historię matki i jej dziecka nawiedzanych przez tajemnicze widmo... Losy tych dwojga najbardziej poruszają Douglasa, przypominają mu o niesamowitych zdarzeniach, które spisała jego dawna przyjaciółka, guwernantka Pod piórem Henryego Jamesa, niekwestionowanego mistrza niuansów, ta zgrabna, krótka historia zmienia się w prozatorskie arcydzieło, pełne wieloznaczności i pytań, na które nie ma jasnych odpowiedzi. W kleszczach lęku przeniesiono w 1999 r. na wielki ekran, a w rolę wuja sierot wcielił się Colin Firth. James to jedyny spośród amerykańskich pisarzy, którego w kulturze literackiej bez wahania nazywa się Mistrzem. "The New York Times" Najbardziej przenikliwa opowieść o istocie zła jaka kiedykolwiek powstała... "The Independent" Henry James (18431916) wybitny amerykański pisarz, krytyk i teoretyk literatury, reprezentant realizmu psychologicznego. W swoich znakomitych powieściach zgłębiał mentalność Amerykanów, zderzając ją z kulturą europejską.
Z duchami przy wigilijnym stole
Mistrzowska kolekcja niezwykłych opowieści, która przeraża i bawi, zapraszając czytelnika do podróży po świecie upiornych zjaw, poszukiwaczy przygód i nawiedzonych posiadłości. Klasyczne opowieści o duchach, nie dających się wyjaśnić fenomenach, klątwach rodowych i niezwykłych wydarzeniach w wigilię Bożego Narodzenia autorstwa wielu wybitnych pisarzy, jak choćby Walter Scott i Henry James. Zbiór opowieści przenosi czytelnika w czasy, kiedy w starych dworach skrzypiały schody, a świecę mógł zdmuchnąć podmuch wiatru lub przechodzący duch. Napisane w różnych okresach historie prezentują pełen arsenał gotyckich motywów i nadprzyrodzonych zjawisk. Duch jest najstarszym i najtrwalszym motywem w literaturze zmieniają się epoki, przemijają mody, jednak postać ducha niezmiennie pozostaje trwałym elementem naszej kultury popularnej od czasów szekspirowskich po dzisiejsze kinowe i serialowe fascynacje.
