DAISY MILLER & OTHER STORIES (ED SWAN) (P)

Daisy Miller is one of Henry James's most attractive heroines: she represents youth and frivolity. As a tourist in Italy, her American freedom and freshness of spirit come up against the corruption and hypocrisy of European manners. From its first publication, readers on both sides of the Atlantic have quarrelled about her, defending or attacking the liberties that Daisy takes and the conventions that she ignores. All three tales in this collection, Daisy Miller, An International Episode and Lady Barbarina, express James's most notable subject, 'the international theme', the encounters, romantic and cultural, between Americans and Europeans.James, Henry is the author of 'DAISY MILLER & OTHER STORIES (ED SWAN) (P)' with ISBN 9780140067217 and ISBN 0140067213.
