In his 1896 short story, "The Figure in the Carpet," James sets forth a riddle for his critical readers as he approaches the major phase in his career. He imagines a fictional novelist, Hugh Vereker, who tantalizes his critics with the idea of a single thread, a design woven throughout all of his major works, hidden in plain sight.

Finally I saw the whole system lock into place; everything fit. The figure in the carpet was revealed as visible silence. James brings the reader into the full consciousness of his character by taking us into the
