Henry Harland (March 1, 1861 – December 20, 1905) was an American novelist and editor, best known during the late 19th and early 20th centuries for his contributions to the development of literary style within the field of fiction. Harland spent the latter part of his career in England where he gained prominence as a key figure in the aesthetic movements of his time. His nuanced character depictions and evocative descriptions of contemporary life won him a discerning readership. Among his celebrated works is 'Mademoiselle Miss, and Other Stories' (1897), a collection that showcases Harland's finesse in the short story form. This anthology, like much of his oeuvre, features tales infused with wit and an elegant, cosmopolitan narrative voice that resonates with the sentiments of the 'fin de siècle' era. Harland's literary technique often combined romantic elements with a finely woven irony, thus articulating a unique authorial presence in the landscape of American expatriate literature. His work, while not as widely known today, contributed to the artistic conversations of his time and provides valuable insights into the cross-cultural flows of literary influence between America and Europe at the turn of the 20th century. In this regard, Harland's legacy as an author holds a modest, yet distinctive place in the annals of Anglo-American literary history.
