Books by Henry James

Henry James (1843–1916) was an American-born writer who spent most of his adult life in England and became a British citizen in 1915. He is considered a foundational figure in psychological realism and a key precursor to modernism. His major novels include The Portrait of a Lady, The Wings of the Dove, The Ambassadors, and The Golden Bowl. The Turn of the Screw, published in 1898, is his most widely read shorter work and remains a touchstone in both horror fiction and debates about literary interpretation. He was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature three times.
