Edith Wharton
Edith Wharton’s superb satirical novel of the Jazz Age was a critically praised bestseller when it was first published in 1927.
Whether it is sex, drugs, or infatuation with the occult, Mrs. Manford and her extended family of socialites are determined to escape the pain, boredom, and emptiness of life through whatever form of “twilight sleep” they can devise or procure.
Far ahead of its time, this Wharton classic employed modernist techniques such as an ever-changing narration among the novel’s characters and a close examination of the characters’ self-identities and relationships with one another to tell a tale rich with irony and wit about the upper crust’s own undoing.
(P)2023 Blackstone PublishingReseñas de la crítica
“No one captures Old New York society like Edith Wharton, and no one could perform this satirical audiobook better than Carrington MacDuffie. With a gift for tone and a wide array of character voices…MacDuffie’s strong voice is a powerful guide throughout the text…leading listeners from scene to scene with verve.”
(AudioFile)“There are only three or four American novelists who can be thought of as ‘major’—and Edith Wharton is one.”
(Gore Vidal, American intellectual and New York Times bestselling author, praise for the author)
