A lighter, quicker Henry James, written in 1879 between the early tales and the great novels. At the spa town of Baden-Baden, one young man asks his friend to inspect the woman he is courting and report whether she will do as a wife — and the report he receives changes the course of both their lives. It is James's most playful treatment of the subject he never abandoned: what happens when a man hands his own judgment to someone else. This edition presents the complete and unabridged novel, newly typeset and illustrated with 41 full-page color plates.

Henry James

Autor

Henry James (Nueva York, 1843), hermano menor del conocido filósofo William James, es considerado uno de los más grandes escritores angloparlantes de todos los tiempos. Nacido en una familia rica e hijo de uno de los principales pensadores norteamericanos de su época, pasó gran parte de su juventud viajando por Europa y por los Estados Unidos, y estudió derecho en Harvard por un breve tiempo antes de dedicarse de lleno a la escritura. Es autor de 20 novelas, 112 historias breves, 12 obras de teatro y una buena cantidad de crítica literaria. En 1915 se nacionalizó inglés en solidaridad con su patria adoptiva y como rechazo a la negativa norteamericana de entrar a la guerra. Murió en Londres en 1916.
