This story has dragged on for too long. The characters talk in riddles and circles. The themes or philosophy that Henry James has wanted to convey are stretched too thin. Infidelity is showed as completely natural, expected even. Strether is shown to be backed in a corner by various people but as I see it, he has been trapped by his own stupidness.

Oh my goodness can this man just get to the point???? What the hell is with all the over thinking and stupid philosophy. It's not that deep neither that serious. Stupid people making stupid decisions and then talking absolute idiocy.

This book has gone on for long enough, these people keep talking in circles.

Honestly don't get the hypocrisy of Sarah to go about with Waymarsh yet sit there and lecture Strether about himself and Chad. Can't say I like any of these characters though.
