I thought Tóibín made James appear colder than he probably was. I don't think he was uncaring though. I think his introverted nature made him overthink relationships and worry about perceptions. I've been reading some extracts from his letters, and he seems warmer and less emotionally closed off than the impression that I got from the book.
