Henry James led a wandering life, which took him far from his native shores, but he continued to think of New York City, where his family had settled for several years during his childhood, as his hometown. Here Colm Tibn, the author of the Man Booker Prizeshortlisted novel The Master, a portrait of Henry James, brings together for the first time all the stories that James set in New York City. Written over the course of James s career and ranging from the deliciously tart comedy of the early An International Episode to the surreal and haunted corridors of The Jolly Corner, and including Washington Square , the poignant novella considered by many (though not, as it happens, by the author himself) to be one of James s finest achievements, the nine fictions gathered here reflect James s varied talents and interests as well as the deep and abiding preoccupations of his imagination. And throughout the book, as Tibn s fascinating introduction demonstrates, we see James struggling to make sense of a city in whose rapidly changing outlines he discerned both much that he remembered and held dear as well as everything about America and its future that he dreaded most.Stories included:The Story of a MasterpieceA Most Extraordinary CaseCrawford s ConsistencyAn International EpisodeThe Impressions of a CousinThe Jolly CornerWashington SquareCrapy CorneliaA Round of Visits
