About this listen

 In this classic, romantic ghost story, a governess on a remote country estate begins to believe her charges are possessed by the spirits of 2 dead former servants. Are her perceptions simply the fruit of her neuroses - or could they possibly be valid? A foray into the very heart of evil, Henry James's masterful novel is also remarkable for its psychological acuity and evocation of mood.Copyright (P)1996 by Dove Audio, Inc.

Poetic, precise, gripping and heartbreaking

The language is beautiful and so perfectly captures the nuance of the relationships and feelings of guilt and uncertainty. The reader is so effortlessly steered from one perspective to another and I for one was utterly unprepared for the heartbreaking ending.
