Painted Veils James Huneker 9781294148142 Books Reviews
James Huneker (1857-1921) is oft cited as the top culture critic
in America during the early years of the 20thC. A music critic,
he also wrote about art, drama, literature. His name, alas, is
mostly forgotten today, but this novel, published before his death,
is a civilized and modern summing up of art, sex, love, marriage,
the creative urge, religion, God and the ironic ways of human nature.
The hero is a worldly young drama critic who falls in love with a
soprano who refuses to let any emotion halt her career. (She reminds
me of Willa Cather's diva in 'Coming, Aphrodite!'). He courts a Good Girl
who fantasizes 'dream-children'(Albee, "VaWoolf") and exercises his lust
on a perky trollop. Others in the Huneker salon are a gossipy music critic
and a seminarian who flies too close to the sun.
Amid the axioms, maxims and paradoxes are refs to Chopin, Liszt, Wagner
and Balzac, Goethe, Huysmans. A fascinating work that shows, as Huneker
asserts "Character is plot, but plot is not character."
Are you moral? What is morality? Consider when this was written. Blah blah figure it out for yourself. Two words required. BS.
