Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Henry James (1843-1916) has had many biographers but Michael Gorra has taken an original approach to this great American progenitor of the modern novel, combining elements of biography, criticism and travelogue in re-creating the dramatic backstory of Jamess masterpiece, Portrait of a Lady (1881).…Gorra shows how this scandalous story came to be written. Travelling to Italy, France and England, he sheds new light on Jamess family, the European literary circles of George Eliot, Flaubert and Turgenev in which James made his name, and the psychological forces that enabled him to create the most memorable female protagonist. A piercing detective story, Portrait of a Novel provides a brilliant account of the greatest American novel of expatriate life ever written. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'After Empire addresses itself to the crucial issue of identity in British society and is also a major contribution to the field of postcolonial literary scholarship. Full of sound judgement, insight, and originally, Gorra's analysis of what he terms 'the imagined community of the British Emp…ire' will probably form the theoretical platform upon which the emerging generation of postcolonial scholars will build'. -- Caryl Phillips, author of Crossing the River.
