«New York Revisited» is Henry James's essay, published by Franklin Square Press in paperback (95 pages, in English).
After more than twenty years living outside his country, Henry James returns to New York and portrays the city at the beginning of the twentieth century: its streets, its buildings, and its urban transformation, with the distance that comes from having remembered it from afar.
Introduction by Lewis H. Lapham. The text was originally published in Harper's Monthly Magazine in 1906; this edition is from 1994 and includes period illustrations and photographs.
It is a read for those interested in New York, its urban history, and Henry James's essayistic work.
Henry James was an American-British author. He is regarded as a key transitional figure between literary realism and literary modernism, and is considered by many to be among the greatest novelists in the English language. He was the son of theologian Henry James Sr. and the brother of philosopher and psychologist William James and diarist Alice James.
