The innocent American heroine


The further away James was from the American culture towards the end of his life the more idealized his American heroines have become. Millie was pure innocence and goodness incapable of hurting a fly. European characters were mostly portrayed as more devious, trecherous and conniving users. His bias is evident in this book and movie as well. Your thoughts?
