Life is always hard for the poor, in any place and at any time. Ethan Frome is a farmer in Massachusetts. He works long hours every day, but his farm makes very little money. His wife, Zeena, is a thin, grey woman, always complaining, and only interested in her own ill health. Then Mattie Silver, a young cousin, comes to live with the Fromes, to help Zeena and do the housework. Her bright smile and laughing voice bring light and hope into the Fromes’ house - and into Ethan’s lonely life.

The Age of Innocence centres on an upper class couple's impending marriage, and the introduction of a scandalous woman whose presence threatens their happiness. Though the novel questions the assumptions and morals of 1870s New York society, it never devolves into an outright condemnation of the institution.

It is a difficult trade, an unforgiving discipline, but for those who master it, the rewards are many. In this series of works by our greatest female writers, we bring you a selection of those we consider the best. In Volume 2 we bring you the classics 'The Yellow Wallpaper' by Charlotte Perkins Gilman and 'Roman Fever' by Edith Wharton.

"Se il ricorso della data è più di una semplice coincidenza - e per quanto mi riguarda ne sono certo - se ne deve arguire che la strana donna comparsa per due volte lungo il viale nel giorno della vigilia dei Morti, o era un fantasma o, cosa più probabile e preoccupante insieme, una donna in carne ed ossa invasata da una maliarda". Edith Wharton fu scrittrice di trame di spettri che appaiono nel lucore lunare, su di un ponte inumidito dal freddo notturno.

Uscito nel 1920, "L'età dell'innocenza" vale alla sua autrice, Edith Wharton, il premio Pulitzer: sarà la prima donna a vederselo assegnare. Il libro è una critica spietata alla convenzionalità dell'alta società newyorchese: una vera aristocrazia immobiliare in cui le famiglie sono le stesse da generazioni, le donne un ornamento e gli uomini non fanno nulla neppure quando fingono di andare in ufficio. I ricchi personaggi dell'"Età dell'innocenza" vivono tutti nello stesso quadrilatero di strade, e d'estate si spostano tutti quanti a Newport.

In Twilight Sleep, Wharton masterfully critiques the lives of the wealthy, showcasing her ability to satirize their excesses while revealing a surprising sense of compassion and even a touch of admiration for some of her characters. Each individual, no matter how minor, is brought to life with vivid detail. Yet, beneath the surface of their bustling lives lies a profound emptiness and a pervasive sense of inauthenticity. This novel serves as a brilliant exploration of evasion and the hollowness of high society. - Summary by T. A. Copeland
