“The characters are original and well drawn. The incidents are natural and clearly described. The dialogues are crisp and to the point. Neither of ‘padding’ nor a vulgar sensationalism is there any trace. A most meritorious work, then, and one which can hardly fail to add to the author’s reputation.”—New York Herald.
“‘The Other House’ shows Henry James at his best. That best is a putting into words of an exquisite comprehension of motives and shades of thought, a magic grasp of character variations, a bringing to the surface of hidden nerve fibres ever unsuspected yet tremendously potent.”—Chicago Daily News.
THE PRINCESS CASAMASSIMA.
12mo, $1.25.
We find no fault with Mr. Henry James’s “Princess Casamassima.” It is a great novel; it is his greatest, and it is incomparably the greatest novel of the year in our language.... From first to last we find no weakness in the book; the drama works simply and naturally; the causes and effects are logically related; the theme is made literature without ceasing to be life.—Harper’s New Monthly Magazine, Editor’s Study.
THE REVERBERATOR.

The public will be glad to find Mr. James in his best vein. One is thankful again that there is so brilliant an American author to give us entertaining sketches of life.—Boston Herald.
