When THE OTHER HOUSE first appeared in 1896 it caused one critic to declare thatit was the work which would secure James's literary reputation.Presented in 3 acts,THE OTHER HOUSE combines James's skills as a dramatist with the craftmanship of his novels.The story revolves around two neighbouring households their loves and rivalries.Meddlesome matchmaking,a death by drowning and unspoken yet all-consuming passions feature in this work,which is little known but displays the qualities which distinguish James's more established masterpieces.
