Henry James’s novel «The Bostonians» is a sharp satire of 19th-century American society, intertwining themes of feminism, political activism, and personal freedom. The plot centers on a struggle for influence over a young, talented female speaker between a committed suffragist and a conservative Southerner. James masterfully exposes the contradictions of the women’s rights movement and the psychology of manipulation, creating a profound portrait of his era.
