His prodigious body of work includes fiction, literary criticism, and travel writing, distinguished by his portrayal of the consciousness of his characters and his stylistic command of the narrative point of view. Intricate psychological insights and profound character studies characterize James's novels and stories, earning him a reputation as a master of psychological realism and narrative subtlety. 'The Complete Novels of Henry James' encompass his most significant contributions to literature, offering readers a comprehensive insight into his literary evolution. Notably, 'The Portrait of a Lady', 'The Wings of the Dove', and 'The Golden Bowl' stand as testaments to his insightful exploration of themes such as personal freedom, social position, and the nuances of interpersonal relationships. James's innovation in technique, such as his use of the 'stream of consciousness', profoundly influenced both American and British fiction, shaping the directions of modernist literature. His work remains a cornerstone in the academic study of narrative fiction and literary criticism, touching upon transatlantic culture and ethics, the clash between the Old World and the New, and the individual's quest for identity.
