Book excerpt: Henry James’s Daisy Miller was an immediate sensation when it was first published in 1878 and has remained popular ever since. In this novella, the charming but inscrutable young American of the title shocks European society with her casual indifference to its social mores. The novella was popular in part because of the debates it sparked about foreign travel, the behaviour of women, and cultural clashes between people of different nationalities and social classes. This Broadview edition presents an early version of James’s best-known novella within the cultural contexts of its day. In addition to primary materials about nineteenth-century womanhood, foreign travel, medicine, philosophy, theatre, and art—some of the topics that interested James as he was writing the story—this volume includes James’s ruminations on fiction, theatre, and writing, and presents excerpts of Daisy Miller as he rewrote it for the theatre and for a much later and heavily revised edition.

Book excerpt: Daisy Miller is the story of a young woman from New York's willful yet innocent flirtation with a young Italian, and its unfortunate consequences. The novella was the first big success for author Henry James who would repeat the theme of a venturesome American girl in the treacherous waters of European society in his later masterpiece, The Portrait of a Lady.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Realistic Imagination, George Levine argues that the Victorian realists and the later modernists were in fact doing similar things in their fiction: they were trying to use language to get beyond language. Levine sees the history of the nineteenth- and early twentieth-century novel as a continuing process in which each generation of writers struggled to escape the grip of convention and attempted to create new language to express their particular sense of reality. As these attempts hardened into new conventions, they generated new attempts to break free.

Book excerpt: Daisy Parker isn't the woman that rock star Robby Grant would have imagined himself falling for. She's soft-spoken, sweet, and lives by a strange code the struggling musician is recognizing as Biblical. And he's helpless against it. Even if Daisy is hard-pressed to believe that a man like Robby would see her-a woman long forgotten by the rest of the world-as anything more than a step back to his career. But Robby challenges Daisy in ways she'd long avoided. With their mutual love of music, it seems nothing can separate them-not Daisy's wheelchair or Robby's ego. As Robby grows into the man he's long dreamed of being, Daisy dares to trust again. But will this sweet melody last?
