Henry James, an influential Anglo-American novelist, was a key literary figure of the late 19th century. Born to a clergyman, he was part of a notable intellectual family, including his brother William, a psychologist, and sister Alice, a writer. Although he spent his early years in the U.S., he later became a British citizen. James's narrative style often reflects a character's perspective, drawing comparisons to impressionist art. He advocated for creative freedom in literature, emphasizing the importance of individual viewpoints in storytelling.
