About this audiobook

In Daisy Miller and Four Meetings, an American master sketches a series of deft psychological portraits that revive a now vanished world of Americans in Europe. In both stories, longtime American expatriates form memorable ties with passionate young travelers who fall prey to their own romantic fantasies.

Admirers of James’s work will enjoy drawing connections between stories written back to back (in 1877-78), and newcomers will discover an enchanting doorway onto the waters of Switzerland, the monuments of Italy, the drawing rooms of New England, and the hidden recesses of the human heart.

With a new post-script: “Henry James would be the bard of misunderstandings, missed connections.”
