This study of Henry James concentrates on a dimension of James's fiction: a fascination for "marginal" behaviour, particularly among his male characters. James's artistic struggle with questions of gender and sexuality can be traced to his own life, and is rendered in his novels and short stories. The author invites connections with contemporary debates about gender and emphasizes the possibility of homoeroticism.
