Sumérgete en la Nueva York de la alta sociedad con 'La casa de la alegría' de Edith Wharton. Esta edición de Penguin English Library te presenta la historia de Lily Bart, una mujer hermosa y encantadora que se mueve entre las familias adineradas de la ciudad. Sin embargo, su renuencia a comprometerse con un marido la lleva por un camino de escándalos y ruina. Publicada originalmente en 1905, esta novela provocó controversia por su retrato mordaz de la riqueza y las limitaciones del matrimonio. Descubre la lucha de Lily por la libertad y la felicidad en un mundo donde las mujeres son tratadas como objetos de consumo.

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.
