Edith Wharton

Edith Wharton (1862–1937) was an American novelist—the first woman to win a Pulitzer Prize for her novel The Age of Innocence in 1921—as well as a short story writer, playwright, designer, reporter, and poet. Her other works include Ethan Frome, The House of Mirth, and Roman Fever and Other Stories. Born into one of New York’s elite families, she drew upon her knowledge of upper-class aristocracy to realistically portray the lives and morals of the Gilded Age.

[Virginia · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Did the Anglican-bred Catholic-affiliate lame writer E. Clerihew Bentley name White Gables after White Gates? Well he shouldn’t have kept on and on with his litany of references to American writers whose ghost stories unfold with more veracity than his ridiculous attempt at crime fiction. This Wharton story can’t help but remind today’s readers that we probably do now live in an Ira Levin world.
