About this title

Synopsis

When timid and plain Catherine Sloper acquires a dashing and determined suitor, her father, convinced that the young man is nothing more than a fortune-hunter, decides to put a stop to their romance.

Torn between her desire to win her father's love and approval and her passion for the first man who has ever declared his love for her, Catherine faces an agonising dilemma, and becomes all too aware of the restrictions that others seek to place on her freedom. James's masterly novel deftly interweaves the public and private faces of nineteenth-century New York society to great dramatic effect.

About the Author

Born in 1843, Henry James was of Scottish and Irish ancestry. He started writing short stories and reviews for American journals in 1875 and then went on to write some twenty highly influential and popular novels including The Portrait of a Lady andThe Bostonians. He died in 1916. Before retiring, Brian Lee held a fellowship at Harvard, and lectured extensively on American literature around the world.
