About this book

"A Passionate Pilgrim" by Henry James is a novella first published in 1871. American Clement Searle arrives in England, physically ailing and desperate to claim his share of an ancestral estate. He dreams of escaping his empty American life for the idealized Old World, but faces hostile relatives and deteriorating health. As he pursues his vision of an English countryside home, fate intervenes with bitter irony. This early work explores James' enduring themes: the clash between America and Europe, and the dangerous allure of passionate experience.
