The Beast in the Jungle

A novella by Henry James exploring the life of John Marcher, who is convinced an extraordinary fate awaits him, and the woman who waits alongside him. Suitable for readers of psychological fiction and those interested in James's late style and themes of missed experience. One note on the "First published: 1997" field: this date is almost certainly wrong for the work itself. *The Beast in the Jungle* was written by Henry James and first published in 1903; a 1997 date would refer to a particular later edition or reprint, not the original publication. I've written the description around the work as established, but you may want to correct that field in your catalogue record.
