О овој е-књизи
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, Edith Wharton's The Age of Innocence is a poignant tale of love and desire set against the backdrop of Gilded Age New York, brought to life in this stunning clothbound edition from Macmillan Collector's Library.
Part of the Macmillan Collector's Library; a series of stunning, clothbound, pocket-sized classics with gold foiled edges and ribbon markers. These beautiful hardbacks make perfect gifts for book lovers or wonderful additions to your own collection. This edition features an introduction by award-winning novelist Rachel Cusk, author of Outline.
Born into a life of sumptuous privilege and strict duty as the scion of one of New York's leading families, Newland Archer finds his path questioned with the arrival of the free-spirited Countess Olenska and her clouds of European sophistication. As his fascination with her grows, he discovers the bonds of the society that shaped him are not so easily escaped. The Age of Innocence is at once a satirical record of a now-vanished world, and a timeless story of frustrated love. It was the inspiration for Martin Scorsese's film of the same name, starring Daniel Day-Lewis and Winona Ryder.

О аутору
Edith Wharton was born in 1862 to a prominent and wealthy New York family. In 1885 she married, and the couple travelled frequently to Europe. They settled in France, where Wharton stayed through divorce in 1913 and until her death. Her first major novel was The House of Mirth (1905); many short stories, travel books, memoirs and novels followed, including Ethan Frome (1911) and The Reef (1912). She was the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for Literature with The Age of Innocence (1920) and she was thrice nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature. She was also decorated for her humanitarian work during the First World War. She died in 1937.
