Wharton E.., The Age of Innocence. Stage 5 — 2008 (Oxford bookworms library) (Classics)

Into the narrow social world of New York in the 1870s comes Countess Ellen Olenska, surrounded by shocked whispers about her failed marriage to a rich Polish Count. A woman who leaves her husband can never be accepted in polite society. Newland Archer is engaged to young May Welland, but the beautiful and mysterious Countess needs his help. He becomes her friend and defender, but friendship with an unhappy, lonely woman is a dangerous path for a young man to follow - especially a young man who is soon to be married.

Wharton E., The Age of Innocence — 2010 (Collins Classics)

HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved, essential classics. 'I want -- I want somehow to get away with you into a world where words like that -- categories like that -- won't exist. Where we shall be simply two human beings who love each other, who are the whole of life to each other; and nothing else on earth will matter.' Newland Archer, a successful and charming young lawyer conducts himself by the rules and standards of the polite, upper class New York society that he resides in. Happily engaged to the pretty and conventional May Welland, his attachment guarantees his place in this rigid world of the elite. However, the arrival of May's cousin, the exotic and beautiful European Countess Olenska throws Newland's life upside down. A divorcee, Olenska is ostracised by those around her, yet Newland is fiercely drawn to her wit, determination and willingness to flout convention. With the Countess, Newland is freed from the limitations that surround him and truly begins to 'feel' for the first time. Wharton's subtle expose of the manners and etiquette of 1870s New York society is both comedic, subtle, satirical and cynical in style and paints an evocative picture of a man torn between his passion and his obligation.

Wharton E., The Age of Innocence — 1981 (Penguin Modern Classics)

Into the world propriety which composed the rigid code of Old New York society returns the Countess Olenska, separated from her European husband and bearing with her an independence and impulsive awareness of life which stirs the educated sensitivity of Newland Archer, engaged to be married to May Welland, 'that terrifying product of the social system he belonged to and believed in, the young girl who knew nothing and expected everything'. As the consequent drama unfolds, Edith Wharton's sharp ironic wit and Jamesian mastery of form create a disturbingly accurate picture of men and women caught in a society which denies humanity while desperately defending its 'civilization'.

Wharton E., Ethan Frome — 1970

Unusual among Edith Wharton's work is Ethan From, a dramatic tale that takes us into the most private recesses of a remote New England village. Remarkable for its beauty and simplicity, this story of great love shadowed by tragedy has become an authentically American classic.

Wharton E., The House of Mirth — 1982 (Penguin Modern Classics)

Lily Bart - beautiful, intelligent, charming - is trapped like a butterfly in the inverted jamjar of wealthy New York society. Flawed by her upbringing and her love of luxury, she is unfit for any other life. Strong-minded enough to suffer bitter contempt of the lies and follies that such a society is built on, she nevertheless knows that she needs money, or marriage, to maintain her precarious foothold in it - and that once she slips down the treacherous social staircase there is no way back. But Lily, incapable of reconciling the warring elements in her nature, moves step by inevitable step to the final act of her poignant personal tragedy. First published in 1905, when it profoundly shocked society, The House of Mirth is a novel of manners that helped to carve out for the author an area of social fiction into which not even Henry James could trespass.
