Translated into Spanish for the first time, this Henry James novella is a wonderful example of the writer s prose fiction, with character confrontations and plots that show the similarities and differences between social classes. The story, divided between the United States and Europe much like James himself presents the conflicts that arise in marriages, courtships, and familial relationships. As jealousy fuels the main character, Adela, to try to destroy her newly widowed father s relationship with the ostentatious Mrs. Churchley, her brother Godfrey s secret marriage falls apart. "Traducida al castellano por primera vez, esta novela corta de Henry James es un estupendo ejemplo de la narrativa del escritor, con enfrentamientos de personajes y argumentos en los que se muestran las diferencias y similitudes entre las clases sociales. La historia, a caballo entre los Estados Unidos y Europa como el propio James, presenta los conflictos que se producen en las relaciones matrimoniales, los noviazgos y las relaciones familiares. Mientras la envidia impulsa a la protagonista Adela a intentar destruir la relacion entre su padre recien enviudado y la ostentosa senora Churchley, el matrimonio secreto de su hermano Godfrey se derrumba.""
