The Outcry, Henry James's last published novel, is an effervescent comedy of money and manners. An impoverished English lord and an American plutocrat clash when a young art connoisseur, out to make a splash, declares the prize painting from the lord's collection to be in fact an even rarer, and pricier, painting than anyone had ever thought. Featuring characters based on J. P. Morgan and Bernard Berenson, The Outcry is one of the most amusing and surprising performances of a great literary master, and is now back in print after 90 years.
