Descrizione
About The Book: In James Henry's novel "The Bostonians," set in late 19th-century Boston, themes of gender, class, and politics are intricately woven. The narrative follows Olive Chancellor, a feminist activist, and Basil Ransom, a conservative Mississippi lawyer, as they navigate the complexities of Boston's upper class. Olive, driven by a desire to champion women's rights, introduces Basil to Verena Tarrant, a talented speaker and Olive's protegé. While Olive envisions Verena as a feminist leader, Basil is drawn to her romantically. As Verena grapples with conflicting ideals, the novel delves into the societal tensions, highlighting the clash between tradition and progress, women's rights, and class dynamics.
