The Golden Bowl

Henry James's highly charged study of adultery, jealousy and possession, The Golden Bowl is edited with an introduction and notes by Ruth Bernard Yeazell in Penguin Classics.

Maggie Verver, a young American heiress, and her widowed father Adam, a billionaire collector of objets d'art, lead a life of wealth and refinement in London. They are both getting married: Maggie to Prince Amerigo, an impoverished Italian aristocrat, and Adam to the beautiful but penniless Charlotte Stant, a friend of his daughter. But both father and daughter are unaware that their new conquests share a secret - one for which all concerned must pay the price. Henry James's late, great work both continues and challenges his theme of confrontation between American innocence and European experience.

This edition of The Golden Bowl contains a chronology, suggested further reading, a glossary, notes and an introduction by Ruth Bernard Yeazall discussing James's original conception of the novel and later changes made to its structure and characters.

Henry James (1843-1916) son of a prominent theologian, and brother to the philosopher William James, was one of the most celebrated novelists of the fin-de-siècle. In addition to many short stories, plays, books of criticism, biography and autobiography, and much travel writing, he wrote some twenty novels.
His novella 'Daisy Miller' (1878) established him as a literary figure on both sides of the Atlantic, and his other novels in Penguin Classics include Washington Square (1880), The Portrait of a Lady (1881), What Maisie Knew (1897), The Awkward Age (1899), The Wings of the Dove (1902) and The Ambassadors (1903).

Does not last long.
Loved the product but disappointed with the longevity. I've purchased 2 units and they both stopped working after about 4 months. We only use in our morning coffee for a few seconds....to mix in cream. I guess for this price, you just keep buying replacements. Seems highly wasteful though. EDIT: Service team reached out to learn more about my issues and is replacing the units that failed. It means a lot to have a good service team that takes care of customers.

Powerful mixer, and the company stands behind the product
I've had a few of these mixers from other companies and they broke quickly and then couldn't even get a response when contacting the company. However, when I had an issue with this one Typhur responded immediately and totally resolved the issue. Good to know that the company stands by their products. This particular unit is more powerful than the other ones I've owned and really works well through thick mixes, with little stalling. The one-button operation, from the top, is naturally suited to the task. Another one I owned had the speed buttons on the side and it was pretty awkward when you're in the middle of mixing something. Since I use Eneloop Pro rechargeable batteries I don't have to worry about setting it up near a socket to plug in a USB cable. My counter top is crowded enough as it is.

It was good until it wasn't. :(
Purchased this in February. It worked great while it worked. It started stopping periodically as I would use it around the first of April. I thought it could be the batteries so I changed the batteries. It is still stopping as I use it. It will spin for a second or two then stop. I have to press the button several times to get it to start again only for it to run a few seconds at a time.
