The Age Of Innocence (Wordsworth Classics), Paperback Book, By: Edith Wharton
Description
Widely regarded as one of edith wharton's greatest achievements, the age of innocence is not only subtly satirical, but also a sometimes dark and disturbing comedy of manners in its exploration of the 'eternal triangle' of love. Set against the backdrop of upper-class new york society during the 1870s, the author's combination of powerful prose combined with a thoroughly researched and meticulous evocation of the manners and style of the period, has delighted readers since the novel's first publication in 1920. In 1921 the age of innocence achieved a double distinction - it won the pulitzer prize and it was the first time this prestigious award had been won by a woman author.
