Om denne boken

"Hawthorne" by Henry James is a book of literary criticism published in 1879. James examines his predecessor Nathaniel Hawthorne's novels, short stories, and life, exploring their shared interest in moral complexity, guilt, and human ambiguity. While praising Hawthorne's craftsmanship and psychological insight, James critiques his heavy symbolism and allegory. The book became controversial for James' famous commentary on what American life lacked for novelistic interest. Written without academic jargon, it remains accessible and insightful, offering James' surprisingly humorous observations on Hawthorne's occasional flights of fancy.
