Widely regarded as one of Edith Wharton"s greatest achievements, The Age of Innocence is not only subtly satirical, but also a sometimes dark and disturbing comedy of manners in its exploration of the‘eternal triangle" of love.
Set against the backdrop of upper-class New York society during the 1870s, the author"s combination of powerful prose combined with a thoroughly researched and meticulous evocation of the manners and style of the period, has delighted readers since the novel"s first publication in 1920.
In 1921 The Age of Innocence achieved a double distinction - it won the Pulitzer Prize and it was the first time this prestigious award had been won by a woman author.
