ALS, four pages on two adjoining sheets, 5.5 x 6.75, December 22, 1904. Letter to a Dr. Goodale of Boston, in full: "It has all been very disappointing & humiliating—my leaving had so to delay to communicate with you & then having had to bolt, literally, from Boston without seeing you—after having been dolefully forced to fail of that last appointment. But there has been a method in my apparent madness which I will explain when I next see you—which I shall make a point of doing about the mid-January. I come on to Boston then for 2 or 3 days more of Dentistry, but days to be probably less fatal to everything else. Meanwhile, I am happy to say, my throat has been much better, & I am yours most truly." In fine condition, with splitting along the hinge. James's acclaimed novel The Golden Bowl, a complex study on adultery, jealousy, and the complex nature of relationships, was published by Charles Scribner one month prior on November 10, 1904.
