Intending to sail for America in the early part of June, I determined to spend the interval of six weeks in England, to which country my mind's eye only had as yet been introduced. I had formed in Italy and France a resolute preference for old inns, considering that what they sometimes cost the ungratified body they repay the delighted mind. On my arrival in London, therefore, I lodged at a certain antique hostelry, much to the east of Temple Bar, deep in the quarter that I had inevitably figured as the Johnsonian. Here, on the first evening of my stay, I descended to the little coffee-room and bespoke my dinner of the genius of "attendance" in the person of the solitary waiter. No sooner had I crossed the threshold of this retreat than I felt I had cut a golden-ripe crop of English "impressions." The coffee-room of the Red Lion, like so many other places and things I was destined to see in the motherland, seemed to have been waiting for long years, with just that sturdy sufferance of time written on its visage, for me to come and extract the romantic essence of it.

This hasn’t been the most and throwing story. Primarily use of old and very difficult words slow reader down. That’s to be expected when a sentry are more passes by. Very glad I read it, some of the descriptions were absolutely brilliant. I definitely feel more educated having read this.Product details

A Passionate Pilgrim Henry James Books Reviews
Exquisite prose by the Master. Need I say more. Read and savor each sentence.
k
Arrived as ordered.
Highly readable and involving--England filtered through an American's reading of British novels and knowledge of British painting, with an engaging pair of characters. "Me and My Girl" meets AUSTERLITZ. What to make of the multiple Doppelgangers?
