Winner of the Bancroft Prize for American History The only comprehensive biography of the astute observer and diarist Alice James, whose life and legacy were long overshadowed by her two famous brothers, William and Henry James. Alice James is perhaps best known as the sister of Henry James, the novelist, and William James, “the father of American psychology.” Few readers were familiar with Alice’s own life—until Jean Strouse’s Alice James. This illuminating, insightful biography takes us into the hidden life of this extraordinary woman. Despite her struggles with a variety of psychological and physical disorders, and with the limited options facing nineteenth-century women, James was articulate, politically radical, witty, and highly intelligent. She found her voice in a diary she kept until her death from breast cancer in 1892. Strouse’s enthralling portrait not only introduces a little-known figure from the American past but casts new light on the history of American women and on the other members of the country’s most prominent intellectual family.

Recommended by Cosmopolitan, USA Today, Shondaland, & Book Riot “It’s not often that fat women feel such thorough representation of themselves not only in poetry but in any media and not only in the beautiful moments but in the sorrowful ones, ranging throughout life. James does a brilliant job of portraying this and all her themes brilliantly; highly recommended.” —Starred review by Library Journal The raw poems inside Song of My Softening studies the ever-changing relationship with oneself, while also investigating the relationship that the world and nation has with Black queerness. Poems open wide the questioning of how we express both love and pain, and how we view our bodies in society, offering themselves wholly, with sharpness and compassion.

Alice Miles kept this diary from 1868 to 1870. She was seventeen when she came from Paris to London and 'did' the Season. The Mileses were living in France for reasons of economy while Philip Miles waited to inherit a baronetcy. They knew 'everyone', so Alice was in the thick of the social round in both London and Paris, but her diary suggests that a faint hint of the raffish marred her triumph. Alice is astonishing, partly for the impudent energy of her writing, more for the complexity of her personality. Maggy Parsons has made an irrestible book of Alice's diary.
