Henry James' short novel Daisy Miller enjoyed a great succes de scandale when it was first published in 1879, dealing as it does with the contrast between old and new world values.
American Daisy Miller visits Europe with her mother and finds that her freshness and innocence are misinterpreted as immodesty and forwardness. This brings her into conflict with the differences in the two cultural traditions, inviting shock and disaster.
Also included in this collection of stories from Henry James are Four Meetings, Longstaff's Marriage, and Benvolio.
