The Ambassadors by Henry James AUDIOBOOK

Henry James’s The Ambassadors is a sophisticated novel of self-discovery, cultural contrast, and moral dilemmas. The story follows Lambert Strether, a middle-aged American who is sent to Paris to retrieve Chad Newsome, the son of a wealthy New England family. Expecting to find Chad corrupted by European decadence, Strether instead becomes enchanted by the beauty, refinement, and intellectual freedom of Parisian life.

As he navigates a world of art, romance, and intrigue, Strether grapples with his own values and the realization that life’s greatest opportunities may have already passed him by. A masterpiece of psychological depth and subtle irony, The Ambassadors is one of Henry James’s most celebrated works, exploring the tension between American innocence and European sophistication with elegant prose and profound insight.
