Description: Roderick Hudson by Henry James Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Early on the morrow Rowland received a visit from his new friend. Roderick was in a state of extreme exhilaration, tempered, however, by a certain amount of righteous wrath. He had had a domestic struggle, but he had remained master of the situation. He had shaken the dust of Mr. Strikers office from his feet."I had it out last night with my mother," he said. "I dreaded the scene, for she takes things terribly hard. She does nt scold nor storm, and she does nt argue nor insist. She sits with her eyes full of tears that never fall, and looks at me, when I displease her, as if I were a perfect monster of depravity. And the trouble is that I was born to displease her. She does nt trust me; she never has and she never will. I dont know what I have done to set her against me, but ever since I can remember I have been looked at with tears. The trouble is," he went on, giving a twist to his moustache, "I ve been too absurdly docile. I ve been sprawling all my days by the maternal fireside, and my dear mother has grown used to bullying me. I ve made myself cheap! If I m not in my bed by eleven oclock, the girl is sent out to explore with a lantern. When I think of it, I fairly despise my amiability. It s rather a hard fate, to live like a saint and to pass for a sinner! I should like for six months to lead Mrs. Hudson the life some fellows lead their mothers!"
