«A Fera na Selva» is the short novel by Henry James, published by Edições Quasi in paperback (91 pages, in Portuguese).
John Marcher awaits an extraordinary event that will change his life, something like a beast lurking in the jungle, and only May Bartram knows his secret. Her reunion with him turns the wait into a lifelong bond. Henry James narrates the obsession of a man unable to acknowledge his feelings, consumed by the anticipation of an uncertain fate.
Work originally published in 1903 as «The Beast in the Jungle»; this Portuguese edition includes the translation by Madalena Alfaia.
For readers of classics and literary fiction, particularly those interested in the short novel and twentieth-century American narrative.
Henry James was an American-British author. He is regarded as a key transitional figure between literary realism and literary modernism, and is considered by many to be among the greatest novelists in the English language. He was the son of theologian Henry James Sr. and the brother of philosopher and psychologist William James and diarist Alice James.
