The Notebooks

Resumen del libro

"For other novelists the value of Henry James's "Notebooks" is immense and to brood other them a major experience. The glow of the great impresario is on the pages. They are occasionally readable and endlessly stimulating, often moving and are ocasionally relieved by a drop of gossip."--V. S. Pritchett, " New Statesman"
"The "Notebooks" take us into his study, and here we can observe him, at last, in the very act of creation at his writing table."--Leon Edel, "Atlantic Monthly"
"A document of prime importance."--Edmund Wilson, "New Yorker"
