Lambert Strether, a fifty-five-year-old widower, is sent to Paris by his fiancée to rescue her son Chad, who has been living there for six years and has stopped writing. Chad is destined to be a pillar of the family business and must return to New England to marry a decent young lady. This edition, with a new translation by Miguel Temprano García, presents what Henry James considered his favorite novel, an exceptional coming-of-age story starring a mature man.
Henry James was an American-British author. He is regarded as a key transitional figure between literary realism and literary modernism, and is considered by many to be among the greatest novelists in the English language. He was the son of theologian Henry James Sr. and the brother of philosopher and psychologist William James and diarist Alice James.
