Poruszająca historia Henry`ego Jamesa. Mistrz psychologicznej subtelności w swoich powieściach jest ślepy na potrzeby własnego serca i niezdolny do pogodzenia swoich marzeń o namiętności ze słabościami charakteru. To najbardziej ambitne i wzruszające dzieło Toibina, przemawiające do wyobraźni spotkanie z człowiekiem, który żył w przededniu modernizmu, nieuchwytnym nie tylko dla przyjaciół, ale nawet dla własnej rodziny, a przy tym postaci nadzwyczaj barwnej i żywej. Nominacja do Man Booker Prize 2004. Jedna z dziesięciu najlepszych książek 2004 roku według "New York Timesa".
