 | Washington Square by Brian Lee, Donna Barkman, Henry James, Mark Le Fanu, Peter Conn
At the age of twenty-two, Catherine Sloper is regarded as a rather mature blossom, such as could be plucked from the stem only with a vigorous tug. She is neither clever nor beautiful (her taste in dress verges on the vulgar), yet Morris Townsend finds Catherine exceedingly charming. Less, it must be admitted, because of her evident goodness and truth than because she is due to inherit a substantial fortune. Meanwhile, Doctor Sloper finds the curious spectacle of his daughter's courtship by a handsome, athletic fortune-hunter at once an entertainment and a challenge. WASHINGTON SQUARE, set in New York City, belongs with Henry James's early novels. It is a spare and intensely moving story of divided loyalties and innocence betrayed, and it is also, as Graham Greene has said, perhaps the only novel in which a man has successfully invaded the feminine field and produced a work comparable to Jane Austen's. AUTHOR: Brian Lee, Donna Barkman, Henry James, Mark Le Fanu, Peter Conn
