The Europeans

Language
English
Format
Category

Classics

Felix Young and his sister the Baroness Munster descend upon their Puritan cousins, the Wentworths, in the Arcadian setting of the New England countryside of mid-nineteenth century America. The inevitable clash between European epicureanism and Puritan restraint ensues, providing humour, paradox, and some revealing insight.

Truly one of James's masterpieces, The Europeans constitutes a dazzling performance of delicacy and wit.
