Help - Henry James christening present
My son, Henry James, is to be christened (baptised) and his great-grandmother wants to get him something to remember her by. I thought she could give a H.J book (namesake) and inscribe a few words to him in the front cover.
Which title would you recommend? Many thanks : yawnb:

Hazel, given your post, which is endearing, I'd recommend The Awkward Age, and The Aspern Papers as a runner up, because it deals with legacy.
