Henry James, an influential Anglo-American novelist of the late 19th century, explored character perspectives in his works, likened by critics to impressionist painting. Born into a literary family, he was the son of a clergyman and brother to philosopher William James. Although he spent his early years in the U.S., he became a British citizen in 1915. James advocated for creative freedom in literature, emphasizing the importance of individual viewpoints in storytelling, which shaped his unique narrative style.
