Description:

One of Henry James’s earlier stories, this novella is at once a romance, a travelogue, and a psychological introspection. Mr. Brooke, an American on vacation in Italy, finds two travel partners in Milan: fellow American Mark Evans and his daughter Charlotte. During their tour of the great works of Italian art, Brooke realizes he is attracted to Charlotte and he reveals his feelings to her in Venice. She remains reserved, however, and the trip continues, but an awkward incident during an excursion provides an unexpected twist that will not be resolved until the group reaches Rome. The themes that James experimented with in his later novels and stories, such as the contrast between American and European society and the evolution of the modern American woman, are intuitively present in this engaging book. Uno de los primeros cuentos de Henry James, esta novela es a la vez un romance, una crónica de viaje y una introspección psicológica. Señor Brooke, un estadounidense en viaje de turismo por Italia, encuentra a dos compañeros de viaje en Milán: un compatriota Mark Evans y su hija Charlotte. Durante su recorrido de las obras maestras del arte italiano, Brooke se da cuenta de que se siente atraído por Charlotte y le revela sus sentimientos en Venecia. Ella, sin embargo, permanece reservada y el viaje continúa hasta que un embarazoso incidente durante una excursión da un giro inesperado que no se resolverá hasta que el grupo llegue a Roma. Los temas con los que experimentó James en sus últimas novelas y cuentos, como la diferencia entre las sociedades americanas y europeas y la evolución de la mujer americana, están intuitivamente presentes en este libro.
