""Pyramus and Thisbe"" is a short story by the renowned American author, Henry James. The story is a retelling of the classic Greek myth of Pyramus and Thisbe, which tells the tragic tale of two lovers who are forbidden to be together by their families. In James' version, the story is set in modern-day Italy and follows the lives of two young lovers, Giovanni and Annunziata, who are similarly kept apart by their families. Despite their families' objections, the two continue to meet secretly and plan to elope. However, their plans are foiled when Annunziata's father discovers their intentions and forbids her from seeing Giovanni. The story ends tragically, with the two lovers separated forever. James' retelling of this classic myth explores themes of love, family, and the societal pressures that can prevent people from being together.Stephen . I confess there is some virtue in it. To give a young lady a bouquet of your own making, or your own buying, is assuredly it's own reward. But to serve as a mere bald go-between; to present a bunch of lilies and roses on the part of another a mysterious unknown to act, as it were, as the senseless clod of earth in which they're wrapped for transportation, and not as their thrilling, teeming, conscious parent soil, this, Miss West, I assure you, is to make a terrible sacrifice to vanity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
