Wharton contrasts the high society of New York with the aristocratic and decadent Paris of Saint-Germain. In this setting, a story of love and longing for freedom clashes with the social conventions, prejudices, and family loyalties of the era.

For readers of classic fiction seeking a short novel about the conflict between feelings and the social conventions of the era.
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.
