{"product_id":"the-other-house-henry-james-9780940322325","title":"The Other House","description":"This terse and startling novel, written just before \u003ci\u003eThe Spoils of Poynton\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eWhat Maisie Knew\u003c\/i\u003e, is the story of a struggle for possession--and of its devastating consequences. Three women seek to secure the affections of one man, while he, in turn, tries to satisfy them all. But in the middle of this contest of wills stands his unwitting and vulnerable young daughter. The savage conclusion of \u003ci\u003eThe Other House\u003c\/i\u003e makes it one of the most disturbing and memorable of Henry James's depictions of the uncontrollable passions that lie beneath the polished veneer of civilized life. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eOh blest \u003ci\u003eOther House\u003c\/i\u003e, which gives me thus at every step a precedent, a divine little light to walk by... --Henry James\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Henry James\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0940322323\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780940322325\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e New York Review of Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/30\/1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 340\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.02h x 5.01w x 0.65d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/15\/2002 pg. 1581\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/15\/2002 pg. 131","brand":"Henry James","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44365029343487,"sku":"9780940322325","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_98f0b780-68dc-4faa-8523-3220c0959e26.jpg?v=1697056220","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-other-house-henry-james-9780940322325","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
