Daisy Miller / Washington Square / The Portrait of a Lady / The Turn of the Screw / The Wings of the Dove
Author: Henry James
The past comes vividly to life in the fiction of Henry James, whose tales of Americans abroad in Europe at the turn of the century offer colorful portraits of life in the Victorian era. But though they are firmly rooted in their time and place, James's best novels - including Daisy Miller, Washington Square, The Portrait of ...  more », The Turn of the Screw, and The Wings of the Dove - deal with timeless issues of character, culture, gender relationships, and morality that have made them some of the most enduring works in English literature.

Known for his subtlety and sophistication, Henry James nonetheless touched on themes of great power and passion, while creating characters with profound psychological complexity.
