Henry James (1843–1916) was an American-born novelist and literary critic, renowned for his intricate psychological insights and elegant prose. Born in New York City, he spent much of his life moving between the United States and Europe, gaining a multicultural perspective that greatly influenced his works. His writings often explored human relationships and societal contexts, with a particular focus on the cultural contrasts between America and Europe.
