Unfinished at the time of James’s death in 1916, the Ivory Tower utilizes a classic Jamesian theme—American innocence transformed by European experience. Here, however, there’s a twist: the hero was raised abroad and returns to America with its immense Gilded Age fortunes to discover the corrupting effects of wealth and possessions.

A propos de l’auteur
Henry James (1843-1916) was born in America but after forty years in England became a British subject in 1915. A consummate prose stylist and innovator, possessed of acute psychological discernment, James took the art of the novel to rarefied heights in such masterworks as The Turn of the Screw and The Golden Bowl, helping to pioneer literary realism.
