| The Golden Bowl (Book 6) as you haven't seen it before -- in a remarkable illustrated edition. Maggie Verver’s world has been carefully arranged—a husband she adores, a father she treasures, and a friendship she has always trusted. But illusions can only hold for so long before the truth forces its way through. The final cracks in Maggie’s perfect life begin to show. Her father, Adam Verver, is now married to Charlotte Stant, the woman Maggie once considered her closest friend. Her own husband, Prince Amerigo, moves through their shared existence with an unreadable gaze and a history Maggie is only now beginning to fully understand. The golden bowl, once just an antique, becomes a symbol of betrayal, of a flaw too fine to be seen until it is too late. But Maggie is no longer the passive observer of her own life. She sees now. And with every quiet revelation, she begins to take control—subtly, skillfully, in ways neither Amerigo nor Charlotte ever expected. As the weight of secrets, silent sufferings, and suppressed desires reaches its peak, Maggie must decide: Will she confront the truth directly, or will she reshape her world in her own image? In this breathtaking conclusion to The Golden Bowl, Henry James delivers a masterful psychological unraveling, where innocence turns to quiet strength, deception meets its reckoning, and the golden surface of life will never be the same again. |
