Description
by Edith Wharton (Author)
Set in 1870s New York high society, The Age of Innocence explores the inner conflict of a man caught between duty and desire. As he prepares to marry the perfectly proper May, Newland Archer is drawn to her unconventional cousin Ellen, whose scandalous separation from her husband has shocked their conservative circle. The novel dissects the rigid social codes, expectations, and hypocrisies of the elite, painting a richly detailed portrait of a society that prizes appearances above authenticity. Through its precise and elegant prose, the story reveals how personal longing and public conformity can collide with lasting consequences.
