No ownership marks. 591 pages clean and tight. No ownership marks. This, the fifth and final volume of Leon Edel's celebrated biography, brings Henry James, now consummately the Master, into the twentieth century. It covers some remarkable literary friendships, with Stephen Crane, Conrad, Wells (with whom he notoriously quarrelled), with his `angel of devastation' Edith Wharton, with Hugh Walpole, and more. In it we watch James on his last visits to the United States, which in many ways so appalled him; we see him at work on his last great novels, and on his memoirs, which had for him such constructive significance. We see him with members of the Bloomsbury group, and with the Asquiths, through whom he met - and was slightly harassed by - the young Winston Churchill. The book ends with what must be one of the most remarkable death-scenes in all biography, with the Master of fiction, fighting to the end, himself well launched on a sea of fantasy. Size: 8vo.
