"Back when New York was still young, so was heiress Catherine Sloper. A simple, plain girl, she grew up in opulence with a disappointed father and a fluttery aunt in a grand house on Washington Square. Enter Morris Townsend, a handsome charmer who assures Catherine he loves her for herself and not for her money. But Catherine?s revered father sees in Townsend what she cannot. Now, with her tearful aunt Penniman as his amusingly melodramatic ally, Townsend will present Catherine with the hardest choice of her young life.?"--Publisher's website.

'Washington Square Inspired by a story Henry James heard at a dinner party, Washington Square 'Washington SquareWashington Square.' Clifton Fadiman agreed: 'It has extraordinary charm, deriving from an almost Mozartian combination of sweetness and depth.'
Back when New York was still young, so was heiress Catherine Sloper. A simple, plain girl, she grew up in opulence with a disappointed father and a fluttery aunt in a grand house on Washington Square.
An heiress favored by neither beauty nor brilliance, her proud and pitiless father, and her fortune-hunting suitor are portrayed through shifting relationships and a series of confrontations.
Washington Square is atypical of much of James' work in that the conflict has begun before the money is inherited. Daisy Miller's father is domineering and believes his own daughter to be homely and dull. When a marriage proposal comes he is unwilling to accept its legitimacy, thus beginning a lifelong conflict between father and daughter.

In Washington Square (1880), Henry James reminisces about the New York he had known thirty years before as he tells the story of Catherine Sloper and her fortune-seeking suitor Morris Townsend. This perceptively drawn human drama is James' most accessible work and an enduring literary triumph. The plot of Washington Square has the simplicity of old-fashioned melodrama: a plain-looking, good-hearted young woman, the only child of a rich widower, is pursued by a charming but unscrupulous man who seeks the wealth she will presumably inherit. On this premise, Henry James constructed one of his most memorable novels, a story in which love is answered with betrayal and loyalty leads inexorably to despair."--The Introduction by Peter Conn In Washington Square (1880), Henry James reminisces about the New York he had known thirty years before as he tells the story of Catherine Sloper and her fortune-seeking suitor Morris Townsend. This perceptively drawn human drama is James' most accessible work and an enduring literary triumph.

When a handsome young man begins to court Catherine Sloper, she feels she is very lucky. She is a quiet, gentle girl, but neither beautiful nor clever; no one had ever admired her before, or come to the front parlour of her home in Washington Square to whisper soft words of love to her. But in New York in the 1840s young ladies are not free to marry where they please. Catherine must have her father's permission, and Dr Sloper is a rich man. One day Catherine will have a fortune of 30,000 dollars a year ...
A structurally simple tragicomedy that recounts the conflict between a dull but sweet daughter and her brilliant, domineering father.
In Washington Square, James draws a minutely detailed portrait of life among the Knickerbocker New York aristocracy with his characteristic attention to historical accuracy. (James drew on his personal knowledge of Washington Square society for the novel. His grandmother lived at No. 18 Washington Square North and he grew up around the corner on Washington Place. In the novel, the main character, Catherine, stands alone, torn among the cultural forces that would have her marry into elite society though she is in love with someone she can never have, in this case, a "remarkably handsome" young rake, Morris Townsend, who wants only her money. Forbidden by her father to marry Morris, Catherine remains unwed until her father's death. When Morris reappears ten years later and again tries to wed her for her wealth, she rejects him, condemning herself to live alone rather than compromise to the corrupt society of both men and women that has constricted her whole life.

Washington Square : With an introd. by Valentine Dobrée
When timid and plain Catherine Sloper acquires a dashing and determined suitor, her father, convinced that the young man is nothing more than a fortune-hunter, decides to put a stop to their romance. Torn between her desire to win her father's love and approval and her passion for the first man who has ever declared his love for her, Catherine faces an agonising dilemma, and becomes all too aware of the restrictions that others seek to place on her freedom. James's masterly novel deftly interweaves the public and private faces of nineteenth-century New York society; it is also a deeply moving study of innocence destroyed.
