The Aspern Papers and Other Stories
Oxford World’s Classics
As well as ‘The Aspern Papers’, this selection includes ‘The Death of the Lion’, ‘The Figure in the Carpet’, and ‘The Birthplace’. All four stories concern the figure of the artist and the cult of celebrity. This new edition includes extracts from James’s Prefaces and Notebooks that shed light on the genesis of the stories.
