"The Sacred Fount" was written by Henry James and first published in 1901. It comes from the 'late period' in James's development as a novelist, and has puzzled readers and critics ever since, because of the obscurity of its subject matter and the extremely complex manner in which the events are related.
On the surface, it is the simple story of a number of people who travel to a weekend party at a country estate (Newmarch). But the narrator of events perceives hidden relations going on between some of the visitors and he tries to work out the truth of these liaisons by psychological means alone, eschewing what he calls the ignoble methods of "the detective and the keyhole".
