The Cambridge Edition of the Complete Fiction of Henry James provides, for the first time, a scholarly edition of a major writer whose work continues to be read, quoted, adapted and studied. Confidence is one of James's least-known novels, but its handling of point of view and the ethics of observing other people, its succession of often vividly-evoked settings - Siena, Baden-Baden, New York City, Paris, London - and its fascinating similarities to other of James's works make it deserving of serious attention. The story of its composition, publication and reception is also told here, illuminating how James negotiated his establishment as a major writer, including a readiness for radical revision at the manuscript stage. At its heart, Confidence offers a compelling portrait of a deracinated group of leisured Americans in a new era of global travel, tracing the twists and turns of a moral-psychological experiment in relations between the sexes.

James, Henry: - Gert Buelens edited Enacting History in Henry James (Cambridge University Press, 1997) and co-edited The Cambridge Handbook of Literary Authorship (Cambridge University Press, 2019). His Henry James and the 'Aliens' (2002) won the ASN Book Prize, while his previous work on James has appeared in Modern Philology, TSLL, and PMLA. He has served as President of the Henry James Society.
