The Turn of The Screw By Henry James (Hard cover)
Widely recognized as one of literature’s most gripping ghost
stories, this classic tale of moral degradation concerns the
sinister transformation of two innocent children into flagrant liars
and hypocrites. The story begins when a governess arrives at an
English country estate to look after Miles, aged ten, and Flora,
eight. At first, everything appears normal but then events
gradually begin to weave a spell of psychological terror.
One night a ghost appears before the governess. It is the dead
lover of Miss Jessel, the former governess, Later, the ghost of
Miss Jessel herself appears before the governess and the little
girl. Moreover, both the governess and the housekeeper suspect
that the two spirits have appeared to the boy in private. The
children, however, adamantly refuse to acknowledge the
presence of the two spirits, in spite of indications that there is
some sort of evil communication going on between the children
and the ghosts.

The Sun Also Rises is a 1926 novel by American writer Ernest Hemingway. The novel is a roman à clef: the characters are based on real people in Hemingway’s circle, and the action is based on real events, particularly Hemingway’s life in Paris in the 1920s and a trip to Spain in 1925 for the Pamplona festival and fishing in the Pyrenees. Hemingway presents his notion that the “Lost Generation”-considered to have been decadent, dissolute, and irretrievably damaged by World War I-was in fact resilient and strong. Hemingway investigates the themes of love and death, the revivifying power of nature, and the concept of masculinity.

The Stranger (Classic Edition) by Albert Camus, Hardcover
- ISBN-: 978-8182475786
- Page-: 114
- Editon-: 2021
The stranger is a story about an Algerian, Meursault, the titular character who commits a murder after attending his mother’s funeral. His understanding of the world, his emotional spectrum, and the general absurdities of the time all combine to form a compelling read. The story is aptly divided into two riveting sections, both told from the perspective of Meursault, who gives us his views before the murder in the first section and later walks us through his state of mind after the murder in the second section. The two parts in this thrilling novel encompass the protagonist’s mindset through the ordeal of grieving for his mother’s death while also coming face to face with his own moral compass for committing a murder.
