The Other House (Barnes & Noble Digital Library)

by Henry James

Overview

This 1896 novel, first published serially in the Illustrated London News, is a murder mystery with a twist—the callous crime goes unpunished, though not undiscovered.  James is less interested in a game of cat-and-mouse than in exploring the psychological motivations of his characters.

About the Author

Henry James (1843-1916) was born in America but after forty years in England became a British subject in 1915.  A consummate prose stylist and innovator, possessed of acute psychological discernment, James took the art of the novel to rarefied heights in such masterworks as The Turn of the Screw and The Golden Bowl, helping to pioneer literary realism.
