A wonderful new collection of Henry James's short stories about Americans in Europe

Daisy Miller is one of Henry James's great heroines: a young, independent American traveling in Europe, whose flouting of social conventions has the potential to lead to catastrophe. Her story is here accompanied by six more riffing on a classic Jamesian theme: the clash between the old world and new, Europe and America.
