Answer: individual vs. society

Daisy Miller is a novel by Henry James, first published in 1878. The book tells the story of young Daisy, an American expatriate living in Europe. Daisy is flirtatious, vivacious and unconcerned with society's rules and expectations. This causes her to be criticized and scolded by most of society, in particular other American expatriates. The conflict at the centre of Daisy's life is that of her individual life vs. the expectations of society.
