I mention this because I would hate for you to be turned off of him due to one of his more cryptic, later novels. I think he's one of the 2-3 greatest novelists in the English Language.

I got half way through 'The Turn of the Screw', and I'm not sure whether I'll go back to finish it. Is it representative of his other fiction?
I love Victorian literature generally, but 'TTotS' is a major slog.
