I do believe it to be both the best of Elizabeth Bowen's novels, and a very good novel by any critical standards....'The House in Paris' is a novel about sex, time, and the discovery of identity....She writes, for all her elegance, with a harshness that is unusual and pleasing. There are moments of vision and metaphor, akin both to James and to Virginia Woolf, but recognizably Elizabeth Bowen's own.
