Best known for such masterful novels as The Age of Innocence and Ethan Frome, Edith Wharton was also a prolific and accomplished story writer. Her short stories demonstrate again and again not only the elegance and wit of her style but also the sympathy and intelligence of her insight into the lives of women and men striving to reconcile the desires of the heart with the demands of society. Ranging in time from 1899 to 1937, these stories vividly capture the gilded age that Edith Wharton's fiction has done so much to define.
