En 'Los niños', Edith Wharton nos presenta a Martin Boyne, un hombre que decide pasar su madurez junto a Rose Sellars. Durante el viaje en barco para reunirse con ella, Boyne conoce a los hijos de unos viejos amigos, los Wheater, una animada familia de siete niños de diferentes matrimonios y divorcios. Liderados por Judith, la hija mayor, los niños han jurado permanecer unidos a pesar de los deseos de sus padres de separarlos. Boyne se ve subyugado por el espíritu de Judith y se encuentra tutelando sus planes. Wharton ofrece una visión de la alta sociedad sin valores, donde el único objetivo es el placer personal.

Edith Newbold Wharton was an American writer and designer. Wharton drew upon her insider's knowledge of upper-class New York society to portray, realistically, the lives and morals of the Gilded Age. In 1921, she became the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction for her novel The Age of Innocence. She was inducted into the National Women's Hall of Fame in 1996. Her other well-known works are The House of Mirth, the novella Ethan Frome, and several notable ghost stories.
