    The Figure in the Carpet

    by Henry James

    Book Description

    The narrator, a writer, prides himself on his review of Hugh Vereker's latest novel. Vereker dismisses his efforts, explaining that all critics have "missed my little point." The narrator racks his brains and, in desperation, tells his friend Corvick of the puzzle.
