Book Description

In New York Revisited, first published in Harper's Monthly Magazine in 1906, Henry James describes turn-of-the-century New York in vivid detail. Although written in 1904-1905, when James returned to the U.S. after living abroad for more than 20 years, the essay is as pertinent today as it was 100 years ago. The text appears as it was originally published and is enhanced with period illustrations and photographs. Beautifully bound and with a spectacular view of the Flatiron building on the cover, this book is a literary treasure.

Henry James

Henry James is a British-American author. He is the founder and leader of the realism school of fiction, his brilliant work has led many academics to consider him the greatest master of the fiction style. He spent most of his life in England and his works became public news shortly before his death. Henry is particularly famous for a series of novels depicting the meeting between America and Europe, and his novels focus on personal relationships, the appropriate test of strength in such relationships. Raising ethical questions, and his method of writing from a personal point of view gave him the opportunity to explore the phenomenon of consciousness and concept. Which made his style of writing compared to the school of impressionism in painting.
