Relatos

This collection brings together a range of medium and long stories, some of them almost novellas, in which Henry James addresses a wide variety of themes: extreme poverty, the cult of the dead, cynicism, betrayal, revenge. In all of them, the author's talent shines through in showing us the most subtle face of human conflicts, with a masterful portrayal of characters, carefully measuring and modulating the psychological intrigue, posing the most unavoidable moral problems, and demonstrating a sure command of language to reach the heights of the best literature.
