Henry James, OM, son of theologian Henry James Sr., brother of the philosopher and psychologist William James and diarist Alice James, was an American-born author, one of the founders and leaders of a school of realism in fiction. He spent much of his life in England and became a British subject shortly before his death. He is primarily known for a series of major novels in which he portrayed the encounter of America with Europe. His plots centered on personal relationships, the proper exercise of power in such relationships, and other moral questions. His method of writing from the point of view of a character within a tale allowed him to explore the phenomena of consciousness and perception, and his style in later works has been compared to impressionist painting.

James insisted that writers in Great Britain and America should be allowed the greatest freedom possible in presenting their view of the world, as French authors were. His imaginative use of point of view, interior monologue and unreliable narrators in his own novels and tales brought a new depth and interest to realistic fiction, and foreshadowed the modernist work of the twentieth century. An extraordinarily productive writer, in addition to his voluminous works of fiction he published articles and books of travel writing, biography, autobiography, and criticism,and wrote plays, some of which were performed during his lifetime with moderate success. His theatrical work is thought to have profoundly influenced his later novels and tales.

《螺丝在拧紧》的魅力在于1形式结构上:独特的叙事视角:近乎全篇女教师这个不可靠的叙事者,“疯子”的言语总是半真半假,虽然这是回忆,但几乎没有任何反思性的介入和作者客观介入;女教师在寻找真相,读者从女教师寻找真相过程中也在寻找真相,这完美的互相映照;开头引文真...

???结尾太突然了吧

将这部作品界定为心理小说其实过于狭隘。旧屋及鬼魅的设定(The Mysteries of Udolpho)、master和governess的关系(Jane Eyre)都让人联想到一些知名前作,而在叙事结构(套中套)、语言风格(迂回、多义性)、主题(恶的传染性与天真的失落)、初衷(杂志刊载的Romantic Gothic)等方面又与后辈暗相呼应(康拉德)。阅读的挑战在于剥开外层叙事者“我”的插话“误导”及主观抄录、Douglas转述过程中的潜在立场、governess的不可信叙述以及the written statement "in medias res"的性质,在the sanity of the governess和the reality of the ghosts之间进行权衡。
