Description
Tonight, we’ll read the opening to “Washington Square”, written by Henry James and published in 1880. The novel recounts the conflict between a dull but sweet daughter and her brilliant, unemotional father. The plot of the novel is based upon a true story told to James by his close friend, a British actress.
The book is often compared with Jane Austen's work (who of course, wrote “Pride and Prejudice”) for the clarity and grace of its prose and its intense focus on family relationships.
This is the second time Henry James is featured on Snoozecast. You can find “The Turn of the Screw” back in October 2019.
