Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

""John Delavoy"" is a novel written by the renowned American author, Henry James. The book follows the story of John Delavoy, a young American man who travels to Europe in search of adventure, romance, and a new sense of purpose. Delavoy is a complex character, torn between his desire for freedom and his loyalty to his family and his country. As he navigates the social and cultural landscapes of Europe, he meets a variety of intriguing characters, including a beautiful French woman named Madame de Mauves, who captures his heart and challenges his beliefs about love and marriage. Along the way, Delavoy must confront his own fears, desires, and prejudices, and ultimately decide what kind of life he wants to lead. With its vivid descriptions of European life and culture, complex characters, and timeless themes of love, identity, and self-discovery, ""John Delavoy"" is a classic work of American literature that continues to captivate readers today.""Not a line -- not a syllable. Don't you remember how you warned me against spoiling it? It's of the thing we read together, liked together, went over and over together; it's of this dear little serious thing of good sense and good faith"" -- and I held up my roll of proof, shaking it even as Mr Beston had shaken it -- ""that he expresses that opinion.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
