The Golden Bowl

USD $ 5,99

Complete and unabridged, with 60 full-page plates by John Lavery, Spencer Gore and William Orpen. An American millionaire and his daughter buy an Italian prince and an English collection, and the prince has a past with the daughter's closest friend, who then marries the millionaire. Four people, one flaw in a gilded crystal bowl, and four hundred pages in which almost nothing is said outright. James dictated it to a typist and considered it the best proportioned thing he had done. Sixty plates of Venice and its waterways, from Canaletto to James Tissot, run alongside a novel where four lives drift on a single flaw.

Henry James

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.
