| | 1. |  | The Europeans (Oxford World's Classics)
from Oxford University Press, USA
Price: $7.23
Customer Review:
This minor work by James is another brick in the tall wall of his obsessive study of the cultural and behavioral differences between Europeans and Americans at the turn of the Century (XIX to XX, of course). The prose is, as always, elegant and intricate, with a rich and sophisticated language that... more info

| | 5. |  | The Awkward Age
from Chauhau Press
Price: $34.45
Customer Review:
If you are not prepared to read several scenes in this novel slowly and often, there is a very good chance that, like many academic reviewers, you will leave it thinking less well of the characters in it than you do of yourself for having, with only moderate encouragement from James, "seen through... more info

| | 8. |  | The Ambassadors
from San Val
Price: $19.60
Customer Review:
While Henry James' favorite of his own novels, The Ambassadors (1903), in my opinion as well as E.M. Forster's, doesn't quiet live up to the genius of The Wings of the Dove (1902) or even the earlier The Portrait of a Lady (1881). The familiar James themes are all there--the American abroad,... more info
