    40: Henry James Short Stories (Part 4)

    This week we've reached the end of our time with Henry James as we read the author's final two short stories for this show. We travel across James' career with these two as we read one story written in the 1850s: "The Romance of Certain Old Clothes" and one in the 1900s: The Beast in the Jungle." These stories illustrate the growth and change of James' career and we adore both of them! Discussion Question: What is your favorite pair of works that demonstrate an artist's growth over time?
