The Portrait of a Lady by Henry James
Considered by many as one of the finest novels in the English language, The Portrait of a Lady is both a dramatic Victorian tale of betrayal and a wholly modern psychological study of a woman caught in machinations she only comes to understand too late. This new edition usefully tracks the major textual changes James made for his New York Edition.
Roger Luckhurst is the author of several books on Victorian literature and culture, and the Gothic and science fiction. He is a regular reviewer and commentator on BBC Radio 4. For OUP his books include The Invention of Telepathy (2002) and The Fin de Siecle: A Reader in Cultural History c. 1880-1900 (2000). For Oxford World's Classics he has edited Late Victorian Gothic Tales and Robert Louis Stevenson's Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde.
