Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Coxon Fund" by Henry James is a short story published in 1894. Frank Saltram possesses a brilliant mind that dazzles in conversation but produces nothing tangible. He lives off others' generosity while recognizing no obligations. When a substantial inheritance meant for a deserving intellectual becomes available, a moral dilemma emerges: should the unreliable but captivating Saltram receive it? The decision threatens an engagement and forces those around him to weigh genius against character, potential against performance.
