Henry James explores his favorite themes in this novel - money, class, and desire. Two marriages are the focus: that of an American heiress and an impoverished Italian prince as well as that of her widowed father and the prince's former mistress. Rich in James's characteristic psychological insights, this novel constitutes a fascinating study of character in a privileged, claustrophobic backdrop.
