 | The Age of Innocence by Cynthia G. Wolff, Edith Wharton, Flo Gibson, Janet B. Goodwyn, Laura Dluzynski
This is Edith Wharton's insider's look, and subtle critique, of New York society at a time when an address above 12th Street was considered the wild frontier. THE AGE OF INNOCENCE plays out the delicacies of a love triangle between May Welland, born and bred to marry Newland Archer, a thoughtful barrister, who in turn loves the infamous, unconventional, and attractive, Countess Ellen Olenska. The brazen Countess has left her Count behind in Europe and has returned to New York for a reprieve from a bad marriage. Not only does Wharton paint a deliciously detailed portrait of old New York and the rules that governed upper-class society, she has also provided readers with an entertainment of high order. With this novel, Edith Wharton became the first woman to win a Pulitzer Prize in 1921. AUTHOR: Cynthia G. Wolff, Edith Wharton, Flo Gibson, Janet B. Goodwyn, Laura Dluzynski
