Edith Wharton is unique in the intimacy and sureness, not to mention the virile and satiric tone, with which she investigates this narrow and declining society. --Ethan frome
Wharton's prose, with its menacing images of death and darkness, is superb. First published in 1911, it remains a hauntingly stark masterpiece (IRISH TIMES) --Ethan frome
Cambridge Literature is a series of literary texts edited for study by students 14-18 years old in English-speaking classrooms.
