Book synopsis

Spanning a period of almost 50 years, the stories of Henry James represent one of the most remarkable feats of sustained literary creation in modern times -- a body of work that, for sheer richness, variety, and intensity, is unsurpassed in its genre. This collection includes all the major stories as well as many that are unfamiliar but equally fascinating and memorable.Volume I covers the years in which James was evolving his art as a storyteller. It includes such masterpieces as "Daisy Miller", "The Aspern Papers", "The Lesson of the Master", and other tales in which James established his favorite character types and situations: the American girl in Europe, the solitary observer, the social climber, the literary lion.
