A review by cj82487
The Beast In The Jungle by Henry James

1.0

While I understand why James is an important literary figure, this story was not a favorite. The overly wordy sentences and the mystical "beast" were at first hard to understand and then became increasingly annoying. Some of the sentences were so long, a single sentence would take up an entire page on my Kindle. Honestly, had I not been assigned this for a literature course to read, I would have stopped about a dozen pages in. With that said, after reading through and analyzing the story, I appreciate the "moral" of the story.
