Notes on Novelists, with Some Other Notes by Henry James

"Notes on Novelists, with Some Other Notes" by Henry James is a book of literary criticism published in 1914. This collection gathers James's essays from two decades, examining French, Italian, English, and American writers through his mature critical lens. James reassesses early enthusiasms like George Sand, reaffirms his devotion to Balzac's mastery, and explores Italian authors' treatment of passion. The volume's controversial centerpiece, "The New Novel," delivers pointed judgments on contemporary writers that sparked considerable debate among his peers.
