Henry James

Henry James
American author Henry James moved to Europe while in his thirties, settling in England in 1876. As a result many of his novels, shorter fiction, and essays probe the contrasts between America and Europe. His style of writing became more and more complex throughout his career, and is distinguished by its rich psychological characterization and deceptively uncomplicated plots.
