The Tragic Muse by Henry James
Requirements: .MP3 reader, 583 MB
Overview: Pressured into a political career by his traditional, establishmentarian family, Nick Dormer longs to be a painter. Eventually, encouraged by the carefree aesthete Gabriel Nash, reminiscent of Oscar Wilde, he resigns from Parliament and follows his artistic dream. His journey is counterpointed with that of budding young actress Miriam Rooth, the subject of Nicks most successful paintings, and the tragic muse of the title, who too sacrifices an affluent life (marriage with Nicks cousin Peter) for her art. However, her tireless spirit and immutable passion bring her great success on stage, and her fame and fortune far outshine Nicks life as a struggling painter. Among the most unique and autobiographical of Jamess novels, The Tragic Muse takes an honest look at the sacrifices and solitude of an artist and the prices paid when taking the path less travelled.
