This comedy of money and manners follows a wealthy American scouring England for works of art. He clashes with an impoverished British lord when a prized painting from the lord’s collection may be rarer and finer than previously believed. A deftly told tale, The Outcry is James’s last novel.
Circa l’autore
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.
