Book Reviews of The Master: A Novel
Book Review: Exquisitely written portrait of Henry James
Summary: 5 Stars
In his latest novel Colm T?ib?n so skilfully evokes the Master, in settings as diverse as Florence and Rye, that at times I became convinced I was reading Henry James's autobiography. Not once did my attention drift and I came to dread finishing the book. To even begin to outline the plot would fail to do the work justice. Lovers of well-written literature should not need a synopsis to entice them to read this. I read Mr T?ib?n's other novels and Henry James's major works with much pleasure, so came to THE MASTER quivering with anticipation. I was never disappointed and look forward to reading it again. I cannot remember enjoying a novel so much in quite a long time.
