The Master
ISBN: 9781509870530 / Angielski / Miękka / 2019 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. With an introduction by award-winning novelist Tessa Hadley In January 1895 Henry James anticipates the opening of his first play, Guy Domville, in London. The production fails, and he returns, chastened and humiliated, to his writing desk. The result is a string of masterpieces, but they are produced at a high personal cost. In The Master Colm Toibin captures the exquisite anguish of a man who circulated in the grand parlours and palazzos of Europe, who was astonishingly vibrant and alive in his art, and yet whose attempts at intimacy inevitably failed him and those he tried to love....

A famous singer captivates an audience, yet cannot beguile her own...
