"The Slipper" is a dizzying story about the life of an intellectual young woman who works as a call center operator in London. The action unfolds against the background of the capital uproar and noise of a big city. The main character is constantly trapped between her dreams of happiness and reality, which quickly turns into the routine of her daily life. The leading theme of the work is the search for one's own place in the world, self-realization and internal conflict. The famous American writer Henry James takes us to the depths of the heroine's psychological experiences, her inner world and the struggle to define her own identity in society.
