This book was the verbal equivalent of every loaf of bread I've ever baked. Like it was just the densest thing. There's something very playful about his density and his verbosity like he knows it. This felt dense for the sake of density. So not like my bread because I don't try to make it very dense like that. That just kind of happens because I'm not a great baker.
What makes a good ghost story? If you said creepy children, gothic architecture, and unreliable narrators, then Henry James has you covered The Turn of the Screw.
This week Andrew mangles words, Craig gets lost in James' Victorian prose, and the two solve the mystery surrounding the ghosts of Bly.
