Henry James' dark comedic masterpiece, written late in his life, follows Lambert Strether as he travels from Woollett, Massachusetts to Paris with the task of bringing back Chad, the son of a wealthy widow. As the story unfolds, Strether begins to reconsider his expectations and finds himself contemplating the possibilities that Paris might hold for him. This vintage recording captures a significant work by one of the great American-born English authors, known for his contributions to literary realism.
