Novelist
Henry James
Wrote twenty novels about Americans in Europe and became a British subject in 1915 in protest at American neutrality. His late sentences are famously hard to hold in the head.
Henry James was an American-British author. He is regarded as a key transitional figure between literary realism and literary modernism, and is considered by many to be among the greatest novelists in the English language. He was the son of theologian Henry James Sr. and the brother of philosopher and psychologist William James and diarist Alice James.
