· `The real loneliness is living among all these kind people who
only ask one to pretend!' Awarded the 1921 Pulitzer Prize (the
first to be presented to a woman), Edith Wharton's The Age of
Innocence is a powerful depiction of love and desire in New York's
glamorous Gilded Age. When Newland Archer, happily engaged to
May Welland, meets his fiancée's cousin Ellen, his entire future is
cast into doubt: strong-willed, witty, and entirely unpretentious,
Ellen is unlike any woman he has ever met. He is torn between
his infatuation for her and his duty to marry May. In subtle and
elegant language, Wharton delivers a critical look at the social
mores of the time.
