The Point Of View - 9781976049132

This short story comprised of several letters by people who are familiarly or loosely connected, all through their individual views on America. James mastered the individual voices, from the coquettish brightness of girls on the hunt for new adventures, to churlish Frenchman bemoaning of everything coarse and rude in a new country. For a few brief pages, we inhabited in the mental worlds of drastically different people. But this is an unsatisfactory story, at times gratingly tiresome, in this reader's estimate, serves an excellent etude in personality sketch but failed as a coherent whole.
