Illusion, described here also as "representational immediacy", is traced through several works, with sub-topics including gender, relationships, codes of behavior, and illusion as a critique of realism. The chapters consider these themes in James's major novels, as well as the lesser known "The Aspern Papers," "The Figure in the Carpet," and "The Velvet Glove." Flannery teaches literature at the U. of Leeds in England. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
