Meer over het boek

Daisy Miller, a stunning young American traveling in Europe, challenges social norms with her bold behavior and candid conversations, leaving Winterbourne, her fellow countryman, in a quandary about her intentions. Her close friendship with a sophisticated Italian further complicates her situation as she disregards societal expectations, putting her reputation at risk. This character serves as a pivotal exploration of the independent American woman, foreshadowing themes that would recur in Henry James's later works.
