Inhalt
»The Master« is a conundrum about Henry James. He was such a master of insight into the human heart but appeared to be so divorced from his own. The man who wrote so movingly about women seemed not to have more than friendships with them. James was exquisitely sensitive and kind, but both his New England upbringing and his homosexuality (which, if expressed, could have had serious consequences, as the chapter about Wilde makes clear) combined to turn his warmer impulses inward. His personal life may appear to have been a series of (mostly) dead ends, but that's the tragedy that he turned into art. Toibin captured James' voice perfectly, both in his own writing style and in what he chooses to tell about the author.
