Henry James's 1904 novel "The Golden Bowl" is the story of Prince Amerigo, an impoverished but charismatic Italian nobleman who travels to London to marry Maggie Verver, only child of the wealthy American financier and art collector, Adam Verver. While in London, Prince Amerigo meets his former mistress, Charlotte Stant, and the two are soon engaged in an adulterous affair. Considered by some to be the last work of Henry James's "major phase", "The Golden Bowl" is a complex examination of marriage and adultery.

This review is from: The Golden Bowl (Hardcover)
Have not read it yet though I saw the series on Channel 13 a long time ago. I am sure it is a masterpiece.
