Sinopsis

The Europeans, by Henry James, is a novel first published in 1878. Two sophisticated siblings from Europe, Eugenia and Felix, travel to puritanical New England to meet their distant American cousins. Eugenia hopes to secure a wealthy husband, especially after her morganatic marriage begins to unravel. Felix, by contrast, is drawn to the relatives’ plainer way of life. As European manners and expectations encounter New England propriety, relationships become increasingly complicated, and romantic interests bring both attraction and misunderstanding.
