Synopsis
What Maisie Knew is a novel by Henry James, first published as a serial in The Chap-Book and (revised and abridged) in the New Review in 1897 and then as a book later that year. It tells the story of the sensitive daughter of divorced, irresponsible and narcissistic parents., What Maisie Knew is a novel by Henry James, first published as a serial in The Chap-Book and (revised and abridged) in the New Review in 1897 and then as a book later that year. It tells the story of the sensitive daughter of divorced, irresponsible and narcissistic parents. The book follows the title character from earliest childhood to precocious maturity. When Beale and Ida Farange are divorced, the court decrees that their only child, the very young Maisie, will shuttle back and forth between them, spending six months of the year with each. The parents are immoral and frivolous, and they use Maisie to intensify their hatred of each other. Beale Farange marries Miss Overmore, Maisie's pretty governess, while Ida marries the likeable but weak Sir Claude. Maisie gets a new governess: the frumpy, somewhat ridiculous, but devoted Mrs. Wix. Both Ida and Beale soon cheat on their spouses; in turn, Sir Claude and the new Mrs. Farange begin an affair with each other. Maisie's parents abandon her and she becomes largely the responsibility of Sir Claude. Eventually, Maisie must decide if she wants to remain with Sir Claude and Mrs. Farange. In the book's long final section, set in France, the older (probably teenaged) Maisie struggles to choose between them and Mrs Wix, and concludes that her new parents' relationship will likely end as her biological parents' did. She leaves them and goes to stay with Mrs. Wix, her most reliable adult guardian.

- y***0 (324)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseA++++++ Seller they gave me a great price and shipped it immediately and communicated friendly. Shipping literally took days and when it arrived it was packaged thoughtfully. The book is brand new, never read, so much value for thr price. These guys are great and always have the best inventory. I definitely recommend this seller to anyone who wants quality books at a great price. Thank you for a great transaction.
- f***- (225)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseI was initially a bit hesitant about purchasing this fairly priced book (listed as being in very good used condition), given the lack of provided images. However, the book arrived promptly, was well-packaged, and after inspecting it, I’d say it’s in even better condition than advertised. I’m honestly amazed at how the first owner managed to read it without opening it more than a few inches (an unbroken back)! Very pleased with the transaction and would definitely buy from this seller again.
- f***n (339)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseItem arrived in the condition described- just about comparable to what I’d expect in the bookstore, but at a better price. The item arrived promptly, was well (not overly) packaged, and the transaction was smooth and easy. I’d work with this seller again, thanks!
