WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY LIONEL SHRIVER
Newland Archer and May Welland are the perfect couple. He is a wealthy young lawyer and she is a lovely and sweet-natured girl. All seems set for success until the arrival of May's unconventional cousin Ellen Olenska, who returns from Europe without her husband and proceeds to shake up polite New York society.
To Newland, she is a breath of fresh air and a free spirit, but the bond that develops between them throws his values into confusion and threatens his relationship with May.
The Vintage Classics edition of The Age of Innocence is published to tie-in with the publication of the Vintage paperback of Hermione Lee's celebrated biography of Edith Wharton
Автор: Wharton Edith Название: House of Mirth ISBN: 1982141794 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781982141790 Издательство: Simon & Schuster Рейтинг: Цена: 14560.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть Описание: A bestseller when it was published nearly a century ago, this literary classic established Edith Wharton as one of the most important American writers in the twentieth century--now with a new introduction from Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jennifer Egan. Wharton's first literary success--a devastatingly accurate portrait of New York's aristocracy at the turn of the century--is considered by many to be her most important novel, and Lily Bart, her most unforgettable character. Impoverished but well-born, the beautiful and beguiling Lily realizes a secure future depends on her acquiring a wealthy husband. But with her romantic indiscretion, gambling debts, and a maelstrom of social disasters, Lily's ill-fated attempt to rise to the heights of society ultimately leads to her downfall. From the conventionality of old New York to the forced society of the French Riviera, Wharton weaves a brilliantly satiric yet sensitive exploration of manners and morality. The House of Mirth reveals Wharton's unparalleled gifts as a storyteller and her clear-eyed observations of the savagery beneath the well-bred surface of high society.

Автор: Lesage Claudine Название: Edith Wharton in France ISBN: 163226093X ISBN-13(EAN): 9781632260932 Издательство: Неизвестно Цена: 25750.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: From French scholar and author Claudine Lesage, comes Edith Wharton in France, an examination of Wharton's years (1907-1937) in France. Lesage, with her innate knowledge of French culture, uses previously unknown or untranslated sources to provide a unique look into French society and Wharton's place within it.
Edith Wharton in France chronicles Edith Wharton's dogged efforts to penetrate the Byzantine levels of French high society, her love for the French and Italian countryside, and her consuming passion for the Mediterranean garden. While Lesage is initially skeptical of Wharton's ability to "become French," this work ultimately portrays a woman of indomitable spirit who ultimately succeeds in fashioning a French home of her own making in her beloved adopted country.
Lesage's work illuminates the intertwined characters and important relationships of Wharton's life in France, many of them overlooked or minimized in earlier biographies. Prominently featured in the account are the French novelist Paul Bourget and his wife Minnie, whose meticulous diary entries over a 35-year period provide a fresh look at Wharton's active social life both in Paris and on the French Riviera.
A still more intimate look into Wharton's French circle is provided by her extensive correspondence with the Frenchman L on B lugou, a widely travelled mining engineer, writer and well-known figure in Parisian high society. Spanning more than 25 years, the letters portray a mutual intellectual kinship and devoted friendship. Other newly discovered highlights include letters presented as evidence in Wharton's French divorce proceedings, a mysterious autobiographical essay written by Wharton's lover, American journalist Morton Fullerton, and numerous photographs never before published.
The author of multiple works of translation, as well original French texts on Wharton and Conrad, Lesage had access to unexamined and untranslated French sources. She presents Wharton's life from the perspective of a native French woman, capturing a unique view of Wharton trying to navigate through the ancient layers of French society and master its often maddeningly obscure rules, all the while commenting on the horrors of World War I and the cataclysmic changes in the arts and culture of Paris.
