Daisy Miller

"Daisy Miller: A Study" by Henry James delves into the life of Daisy Miller, a young, vibrant American girl traveling through Europe. Through the eyes of Frederick Winterbourne, a compatriot who becomes infatuated with her, we witness Daisy's disregard for social conventions, which stirs controversy among European high society. As her free-spirited nature invites scandal and misinterpretation, James masterfully examines themes of cultural clash, innocence, and societal judgment, presenting a poignant critique of social mores.
