Henry James
Washington Square
Paperback
(CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform Oct. 30, 2015)
Despite the fact that James himself never managed to show any real affection for “Washington Square”, it did become one of his most popular works. Critic, Donald Hall certainly echoed the general consensus that “Everybody likes “Washington Square”, even the denigrators of Henry James", Admired for its old fashioned simplicity, the novel unfolds the tragic comedy of the four central characters; Dr. Sloper, a brilliant, unemotional man, his sweet but plain daughter, Catherine, who is naively charmed by the romantic interest of Morris Townsend, and the Dr.’s sister, Lavinia, a meddlesome woman with a weakness for romance. The book has been adapted to theatre, opera and film, most recently in a 1997 production starring Jennifer Jason Leigh, Albert Finney, Ben Chaplin, and Maggie Smith.
