Henry James
by Tom Hubbard
From the novels The Turn of the Screw and The Portrait of a Lady to his extensive literary criticism, Henry James is recognized today as one of the central novelists and proponents of 19th-century realism. Original essays in this volume analyze the importance of James work to his contemporaries, the influence of Nathaniel Hawthorne in his writing, and his failed theatrical career. -- Amazon
