### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    How scandalous Miss Miller was!
  

*by T***E on Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2017*

This was included in "Texts from Jane Eyre: And Other Conversations with Your Favorite Literary Characters," and since I'd never read it and didn't know anything about Daisy Miller (and since I found a free Kindle book), I thought I'd check it out.  It is short, but the language is rather flowery (it first appeared in 1878), so I couldn't read the whole thing in one sitting.I always find it interesting how times have changed when I read "period pieces" like "Daisy Miller".  It's not a spoiler to say that Daisy Miller is a flirt and "flouts social conventions", but it's remarkable just what causes lips to flap.  Walking around outside with a gentleman with no chaperone?  Scandalous!  Nowadays, no one would blink an eye at that.I will say I was shocked at what becomes of Miss Miller and her free-wheeling ways.  Definitely was worth the read, and it made me appreciate the many sections in "Texts from Jane Eyre" about this character!

    A quick read that will keep you thinking!
  

*by V***S on Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2018*

Daisy Miller is a 100-page book that is deceivingly full of ideas that will leave the reader pondering it for a long time.  Henry James wrote many stories that brought the question of class, mores', manners and etiquette.  Worlds where men have every freedom and women that have few.  James styles a vivacious curious young American heiress and places her into the stuffy class centric world of the established European aristocracy.  While men find Daisy refreshing, eccentric, and dangerous, women find her bold, gauche and quite unacceptable. A point that more or less points to their fears. Daisy herself is curious about the world and doesn't want to miss a single experience due to someone else's sense of propriety.  It's a wonderful collision of values in just 100 pages!

*by P***D on Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2020*

I usually have a hard time with older novels (this one is from the 1870s) with all the themesof dating and courtship and cultural norms, social class and so forth. But I enjoyed this onemore than usual, and in fact it is delightful. It is a short novel set in Europe, with an Americanman fascinated by a down to earth American girl from Schnectady, and an Italian gentleman.There also are references to places like Saratoga. So I thought it was cool that we're in all theseromantic places like Geneva and Rome, and the characters are wishing they were in the MohawkValley. The girl and her mother have money, but typical of an American, she is all in your face andsays and does random stuff, but is fairly innocent. So the story raises questions of what is properbehavior "when in Rome" in a particular social or cultural setting. There also is the question ofgossip, and while our world is quite different from the 1870s, that is a constant of the humancondition.
