A review by lee_foust
The Ambassadors by Henry James

5.0

The word I keep thinking of in regards to this novel is charming. Seems a bit odd to think of James this way, but this narrative is so amazingly tender, thoughtful--yes, slow, slow as paint drying, sublimely, beautifully slow--that it charmed me all the way through. I think it's James's masterpiece and I guess my favorite of his novels. I, too, have been charmed by Europe so I suppose I was bound to love this one the most.
