After an extended trip abroad, the son of a Bristol shipping magnate arrives home with a Chinese bride in this 1919 novel of love and betrayal. Told from several different points of view and in a vivid, highly visual style, Java Head is generally considered Hergesheimer’s best novel; it became the basis of two acclaimed films.
