Autorenporträt

Henry James (1843 - 1916) was an American novelist. Born in New York, he spent long periods of time in Europe as a young man, and eventually settled in England, becoming a British citizen in 1915. By his mid-twenties James was already regarded as one of the best short-story writers in America, and he continued to find success with his novels. Some of his best-known works include 'The Portrait of a Lady', 'The Wings of the Dove' and his much-loved gothic horror story 'The Turn of the Screw', which has been adapted for stage and screen multiple times. James was nominated for the Nobel Prize in literature three times. He died in London in 1916.
