The Suburbs of London (Henry James).

The book "The Suburbs" is a masterpiece of classical literature known for its bright imagination and sharp style. It was written by a literary giant (Henry James) at the time when he lived in rural England. The main heroine of the novel is "Jane Aikin" - an ordinary woman from the suburbs, who wants to build her own success in life. Henry James skillfully depicts Jane's way through the world of his time, to which she applies traditional Victorian values.

The romance of "Jane Aiken" touches upon the problems of love and marriage, the differences between generations, and questions such as, "Is a modest wife better than a famous mistress?". This problem was valid for all layers of british society. However, unlike all the others who wrote about everyday things that everyone knows and understands, Henry James created something incomparable. All the descriptions in the book are quite realistic and expressive, which together with a beautiful style makes it a true masterpiece.
