Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Product Description The Portrait of a Lady is the most stunning achievement of Henry James's early periodin the 1860s and '70s, when he was transforming himself from a talented young American into a resident of Europe, a citizen of the world, and one of the greatest novelists of modern times. A kind of delight at the success of this transformation informs this masterpiece. When Isabel Archer, a young American woman with looks, wit, and imagination, arrives in Europe, she sees the world as "a place of brightness, of free expression, of irresistible action." She turns aside from suitors who offer her their wealth and devotion to follow her own path. But that way leads to disillusionment and a future as constricted as "a dark narrow alley with a dead wall at the end." In one of the most moving conclusions in modern fiction, Isabel makes her final choice.

From AudioFile There are few hours in life more agreeable than hearing a fine story told well. Wanda McCaddon's distinguished British accent provides a smooth narration of one of Henry James's mostloved novels. This 1881 story tells of Isabel Archer, an American heiress, as she meets the upper classes in England during her first trip abroad. A love story ensues, full of Jamesian conflict, and Archer eventually chooses among several suitors and decides how she will lead her life. One of James's most piercing psychological novels, this book benefits from McCaddon's even, perfectly paced delivery. Her reading brings out the subtlety of this wonderful work. K.M.
