The Death of the Lion is an 1894 story by Henry James (1843-1916), the American-British master of the novel and tale. A sharp, comic-melancholy satire of literary celebrity, it follows a devoted young journalist trying to protect a great neglected writer from the fashionable world that lionises without reading him.
