More about the book
Focusing on Henry James's complex relationship with nineteenth-century feminism and women's literature, this critique reveals new documentation about his life and writings. It explores his father's unconventional views on free love and feminism, which significantly influenced James. Additionally, the book examines how James misrepresented his cousin Minnie Temple, whose assertive character inspired him, and highlights his contradictory stance towards American women writers, whose narratives he both criticized and drew from in his own works.
