Excerpt from The Intriguers: A Novel This year Harrington Boyd had gone abroad in May and returned early in July. The two weeks in Newport that followed bored him so much that when he ran up to Boston to see the Norths, who had a cottage at Magnolia, he resolved not to go back there. The Norths worried him for a week, so, by means of a plausible fiction about being obliged to return to New York to confer with his publishers, he escaped from their clutches. For he found that to be with the Norths was really to be in their clutches. They paraded him incessantly, till he grew tired of his literary reputation and of himself, an experience he had never had before.
