Summary

In New York Revisited, first published in Harper's Monthly Magazine in 1906, Henry James describes turn-of-the-century New York in vivid detail。 Although written in 1904-1905, when James returned to the U。S。 after living abroad for more than 20 years, the essay is as pertinent today as it was 100 years ago。 The text appears as it was originally published and is enhanced with period illustrations and photographs。 Beautifully bound and with a spectacular view of the Flatiron building on the cover, this book is a literary treasure。

There is a an amazing moment in the Church of the Ascension, and a memorable description of the lack of forecourt at the Waldorf。 Beware this is very much Late James, so the sentences can have a Xanax effect。
