#2018Book93
Because I have a Master's degree in English, I occasionally figure I should read a classic or two. But then I end up with a classic like this, which makes me wonder how it became a classic in the first place. Sure, Henry James knows how to write a sentence. But this book is literally just the same people having the same argument over and over in front of a child for 200+ pages. That's it.

TheAnitaAlvarez Henry James is a bit like that, but I‘ve always loved him in my fashion 6y
