January 1895
Henry James "novelized." Begins with a confused/frightening dream involving his dead sister and mother.
Description of the writing and production of his play Guy Domville. Meeting with a Russian princess who is returning (against her will) to Russia. She brings up Paul Joukowsky, a reminder to James of his (latent?) homosexuality.
The play is a failure. At the same time, a Wilde play succeeds. Injustice. Jealousy.
