world of Henry James» (New York Times). A modern classic pays tribute to one of the pillars of American and world literature, a precursor of modernism. An outstanding artist, a master of subtle psychological portrait, portrayed in all his vulnerability and loneliness — from the failure of the staging of his play «Guy Domville» at the Drury Lane Theatre in London, while the audience in the neighboring theater applauds the premiere of «The Importance of Being Earnest» by Oscar Wilde, to a visit to the provincial English town of Rye, where James settled in his later years, his brother, philosopher William James, and numerous reminiscences of key episodes in the biography of the celebrated voluntary exile, who preferred London, Florence, and Paris to his native Boston… «A quiet masterpiece, a work of extraordinary seriousness and empathy, revealing to us the genius in all his human fullness. And this profound novel is written — let’s not shy away from the word — masterfully» (New York Observer).
