  4. Cloudflare decided my search for Todorov's essay on James's "Figure in the Carpet" fell under the category of "suspicious searches."

    Very Jamesian.

  12. .@faris & @rosieyakob usually curate “Strands of Genius” but this one time they asked ME to do it and I went off on tangents about #soccer and #henryjames and #stlouis and a bunch of other things. Enticing, right? Check it out here: shorturl.at/BNH8y

  19. Theodora Bosanquet was Henry James' typist for his final decade. He called her his "Remington priestess." She typed the New York Edition revisions, expanding single scenes until her page-numbering reached the middle of the alphabet (8a, 8b, 8c... 8m).

    After James died, she held seances where his ghost asked to resume their dictation sessions. She kept typed transcriptions of everything.

    The typing continued past death.

    Sophia Tolstoy copied War and Peace seven times by hand, by candlelight, after the children were asleep. The typewriter was patented the year after the novel was published.
