Descrizione
Henry James’s novel “Washington Square” is one of his more popular works.
This precisely rendered version of the Harper and Brothers 1901 edition includes George Du Maurier’s illustrations, originally published in the 1880 edition.
In this bijou novel, heiress Catherine Sloper falls in love with a penniless young man, Morris Townsend. Catherine’s father, Dr. August Sloper, is convinced that Townsend is a fortune hunter and refuses to consent to their marriage. The conflict between the gentle but defiant Catherine and her tyranical father is the dominant theme of the novel. The plot is based on a true story told to James by a close friend, British actress Fanny Kemble.
