They explore the private worlds of our "Gilded Age." A once free-spirited American woman in Paris tries to extricate herself from her marriage to a French aristocrat in "Madame de Treymes." A divorced mother finds herself in a strange romantic triangle in "The Mother's Recompense." Repressed passions smolder in small town New England in the classic "Ethan Frome," a tale of unhappy marriage & desperate love which erupts in an act of shattering violence. In "Summer", which Wharton called "the Hot Ethan", she tells the story of a young women's initiation into the intricate sexual & social mores of a small town. Also included here are "Old New York," four linked novellas set in succeeding decades from the 1840s to the 1870s, Wharton's renowned autobiography "A Backward Glance," & "Life and I," a fascinating autobiographical fragment published here for the first time. * ABOUT The LIBRARY of AMERICA, a nonprofit publisher, is dedicated to preserving America's best & most significant writing in handsome, enduring volumes, featuring authoritative texts. * SHIPPING: MNEMOSYNE carefully wraps, labels & custom-packages this fine book w/ our greatest elegance & care for FREE shipment via USPS MEDIA MAIL within the U.S. w/ Domestic USPS PRIORITY MAIL available for a nominal additional fee & shipment of all international orders via efficient USPS FIRST CLASS AIRMAIL at our posted rates.
