| Resumen: |
Widely regarded as one of Edith Wharton´s greatest achievements The Age of Innocence is a satirical and sometimes dark and disturbing comedy of manners which explores the "eternal triangle" of love against the backdrop of upper-class New York society during the 1870s. The author´s combination of powerful prose 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. The Age of Innocence won the Pulitzer Prize in 1921- the first time it had been won by a woman author. |
