The Siege of London is a collection of three novellas written by James Jr., Henry, first published in 1883. The first novella, The Siege of London, is a political satire that explores the absurdity of the British political system. The story follows a group of politicians who become trapped in the Houses of Parliament during a violent uprising in London. The second novella, The Pension Beaurepas, is a tragic love story set in the French Riviera. The protagonist, an American artist, falls in love with a young French woman who is dying of tuberculosis. The final novella, The Point of View, is a psychological study of a failed marriage. The story is told from the perspectives of both the husband and wife, highlighting the misunderstandings and miscommunications that led to their separation. James Jr.'s writing is known for its intricate character studies and exploration of human relationships, and this collection is no exception. The Siege of London is a thought-provoking and engaging read that delves into the complexities of human nature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
