Praised for the masterfully drawn protagonist, Jeff Durgan, The Landlord at Lion’s Head—considered one of Howells’s best novels for its expert characterization—follows Durgin from his impoverished childhood on a New England farm, to his unsuccessful career at Harvard, and finally to success at his fashionable hotel on the old farm’s site.
