Klassiekers

This classic tale of the discovery of the charms of the Old World by differing American types, represents the finest flowering of the genre for which Henry James is most renowned and at ease. Full of humour, irony and delicate perception, the book matches superb character portrayal with a vivid sense of time and place.
