Product Details
Overview
Una de las mejores novelas cortas de Henry James.
Un escritor joven con una carrera prometedora traba amistad con un autor reconocido, ya en decadencia, que le descubrirá el sacrificio que implica consagrar la vida al arte. El eje de la acción gira alrededor de estos dos personajes y de una mujer a la que ambos artistas aman. El arte y la creación constituyen para los tres elementos esenciales en sus vidas; de ahí que las elecciones vitales que tomen vendrán marcadas por el dilema entre fama y éxito artístico. La caracterización psicológica es deslumbrante y el recurso del punto de vista se convierte en un callejón sin salida desde el que el propio autor observa el movimiento de sus personajes.
Considerada por la crítica como una de las mejores novelas cortas de Henry James, La lección del maestro supone la máxima expresión de la intensa depuración narrativa del genial escritor norteamericano.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
One of Henry James’s finest short novels.
A young writer with a promising career befriends a renowned author, now in decline, who reveals to him the sacrifice involved in dedicating one’s life to art. The story revolves around these two characters and a woman both artists love. For all three, art and creation are essential elements of their lives; hence their life choices are marked by the dilemma between fame and artistic success. The psychological characterization is dazzling, and the use of perspective becomes a dead-end from which the author himself observes his characters’ movements.
Considered by critics as one of Henry James’s best short novels, The Lesson of the Master represents the pinnacle of narrative refinement by the brilliant American writer.
