The Aspern Papers

Beschreibung

THE ASPERN PAPERS, written by Henry James, was originally published in 1888. Set in a brilliantly described Venice, it demonstrates James' ability to generate almost unbearable suspense while never neglecting the masterful development of his characters.

Autor

Henry James (1843 - 1916) was an American-born British writer. He is regarded as one of the key figures of 19th-century literary realism. He was the son of Henry James, Sr. and the brother of philosopher and psychologist William James and diarist Alice James. He is best known for a number of novels showing Americans encountering Europe and Europeans. His method of writing from a character's point of view allowed him to explore issues related to consciousness and perception and his style in later works has been compared to impressionist painting. His imaginative use of point of view, interior monologue and unreliable narrators brought a new depth to narrative fiction.
