Introduction and Notes by Ian F.A. Bell. Professor of English Literature. University of Keele Washington Square marks the culmination of James's apprentice period as a novelist. With sharply focused attention upon just four principal characters, James provides an acute analysis of middle-class manners and behaviour in the New York of the 1870s, a period of great change in the life of the city. This change is explored through the device of setting the novel's action during the 1840s, similarly a period of considerable turbulence as the United States experienced the onset of rapid commercial and industrial expansion. Through the relationships between Austin Sloper, a celebrated physician, and his sister Lavinia Penniman, his daughter Catherine, and Catherine's suitor, Morris Townsend, James observes the contemporary scene as a site of competing styles and performances where authentic expression cannot be articulated or is subject to suppression.

評分要不是看到作者名字,還真以為是奧斯汀小姐的大作啊~
評分drama 162'
評分每個人為瞭達到自己的目的都不說真話。隻有catherine是唯一說真話的人。你以為的真相,真的是真相嗎?
評分一點都不像James,反而有些地方有簡奧斯丁的感覺,不過結尾處還是沒有流俗,天真少女與渣男的情感糾葛,最後也抵不過歲月流逝,再多心碎憂傷執念,也總有放得下那一天。喜歡裏麵對一百多年前紐約城的描寫。
