Author:Henry James
In this extraordinary variation on the theme of the eternal triangle, Henry James contrasts two women who love one man: the magnificent but ambitious and unscrupulous Kate Croy, and the fragile heiress Millie Theale whose early death precipitates the story's surprising outcome. Together with THE GOLDEN BOWL and THE AMBASSADORS, this novel completes a celebrated trilogy in which James explores his perennial themes of love and renunciation with all the strength, drama and subtlety of a very great writer at the height of his powers. The book is published to coincide with the film starring Helena Bonham Carter, Linus Roache, Elizabeth McGovern, Charlotte Rampling and Alison Elliot.
The best book I've read about football and working-class culture in Britain in the nineties. Buy, steal or borrow a copy now
—— Irvine WelshFever Pitch with testosterone and eight pints of lager. Like Fever Pitch, it is not exclusively a novel about football. This is a chronicle of a lost tribe – the white, Anglo-Saxon, heterosexual who is fed up with being told he is crap.
—— Glasgow HeraldNot only an outstanding read, but also an important social document... This book should be compulsory reading for all those who believe in the existence, or even attainability, of a classless society
—— Sunday TribunePowerfully written and tells you more about the mentality of those who disrupt football matches than all the theses of the sociologist academics put together
—— Daily MailBleak, thought-provoking and brutal... Has all the hallmarks of a cult novel
—— Literary ReviewFor ARRANGED MARRIAGE, 'As irresistible as the impulse which leads her characters to surface to maturity, raising their heads above the floods of silver ignorance'
—— New York Times Book Review
