Q. Can you help me find biographical information about Henry James's (the author) life?
I need to find information about Henry James's life to write a paper about the book "Daisy Miller." I need to analyze the book and James's life psychobiographically, so I need to be able to know all about his life in order to complete this assignment effectively, but I'm unsure of what biographies will give me the most unbiased and current information. I would very much appreciate your help in finding this information.
We have several shelves of books by and about James on the third floor of the library, most of them filed under the numbers in the PS 2120's. The multivolume biographies by Leon Edel (PS 2123 E37) and Sheldon M Novick (PS 2123 N582) are the most detailed sources; we'll have several other less intimidating ones shelved nearby.
