Synopsis
This Library of America volume brings togetherone of Henry James's most unusual experiments andone of his most beloved masterpieces Writing to his friend William Dean Howells, Henry James characterized his experimental novel, The Sacred Fount , as the only one of his novels to be told in the first person, as "a fine flight into the high fantastic." While traveling to the country house of Newmarch for a weekend party, the nameless narrator becomes obsessed with the idea that a person may become younger or cleverer by tapping the "sacred fount" of another person. Convinced that Grace Brissenden has become younger by drawing upon her husband, Guy, the narrator seeks to discover the source of the newfound wit of Gilbert Long, previously "a fine piece of human furniture." His perplexing and ambiguous quest, and the varying reactions it provokes from the other guests, calls into question the imaginative inquiry central to James's art of the novel. James described the essential idea of The Wings of the Dove as "a young person conscious of a great capacity for life, but early stricken and doomed, condemned to die under short respite, while also enamoured of the world." The heroine, a wealthy young American heiress, Milly Theale (inspired by James's beloved cousin Minny Temple), is slowly drawn into a trap set for her by the English adventuress Kate Croy and her lover, the journalist Morton Densher. The unexpected outcome of their mercenary scheme provides the resolution to a tragic story of love and betrayal, innocence and experience that has long been acknowledged as one of James's supreme achievements as a novelist. This volume prints the New York Edition text of The Wings of the Dove , and includes the illuminating preface James wrote for that edition. LIBRARY OF AMERICA is an independent nonprofit cultural organization founded in 1979 to preserve our nation's literary heritage by publishing, and keeping permanently in print, America's best and most significant writing. The Library of America series includes more than 300 volumes to date, authoritative editions that average 1,000 pages in length, feature cloth covers, sewn bindings, and ribbon markers, and are printed on premium acid-free paper that will last for centuries., This Library of America volume brings together one of Henry James's most unusual experiments and one of his most beloved masterpieces Writing to his friend William Dean Howells, Henry James characterized his experimental novel, The Sacred Fount , as the only one of his novels to be told in the first person, as "a fine flight into the high fantastic."

- z***n (113)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoMy second transaction with this seller and every bit as great as the first. The vinyls were accurately described - like new condition. The packaging is unparalleled. The delivery is fast and fairly priced. I received a refund on combined shipping. The seller sent personalized emails to notify me of shipping and out for delivery. I have had two separate deliveries from this seller before receiving a vinyl I ordered from someone else - still waiting. Highly recommend.

- e***c (287)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoJust amazing all around. Seller was the single best communicator I’ve yet used on eBay (joined in 2001). Seller communicated when shipped and even when the carrier planned to deliver the product (I didn’t ask for either but love it). Vinyl album was very securely packaged— it was not slipping or moving at all. It was in amazing, pristine condition and I’d absolutely buy from seller again
