Sinopsis

'The Real Thing,' a tale of an artist and his models, a husband and wife in impoverished conditions willing to do anything to earn their keep. This story, often read as a parable, plays with the reality-illusion dichotomy that fascinated James, especially in the later stages of his career; 'Sir Dominick Ferrand,' in which struggling author Peter Baron’s discovery of the secret letters of Dominick Ferrand changes his life; 'Nona Vincent' -- playwright Allan Wayworth struggles to write something meaningful for the popular stage; and 'Greville Fane,' in which the narrator is called upon to interview a dying author, known for her sensational and passionate novels. Also included is 'The Chaperon.'
