Washington Square = Площа Вашингтона (тв.паліт.) (9786170702890)

Henry James (1843—1916) in his novel “Washington Square” proposes us the plot which is traditional for the Victorian novel: an unattractive, but with comfortable circumstances, girl falls in love with a likeable and gregarious young man, but the girl’s hard father feels the youth’s insincerity and aims at any cost to avert the undesirable marriage. Still, this is only the story line of the novel through which profound psycological insight and wide imagery are being shown. Each hero plays his own game with life and nobody knows who will win and who will lose it.
