Ive just finished reading the book and I have to say that it is probably not one ofe my favourite, probably because of all of the describtions and so on...however, it is not one of the worst books I know and there are many interesting points. Probably the most interesting is the character of Isabel herself...she is indipendant, but on the other hand she believes a lot in feelings and then teher is her naivity...but thatīs how women start probably... it is impossible for a woman to be indipendant already from her teenage period... even the most indipendant women should have started somewhere... and I would say that that is what James was trying to say . the book was about the process of becoming indipendant...well, at the end Isabel leaves Goodwood and makes finally something she does not want to do...do you agree guys...?:)
