The Age of Innocence by Edith Wharton 🔖🔖🔖🔖🔖


First published October 1, 1920

Literary awards: Pulitzer Prize for Fiction 1921

I had to sit on this one once I finished reading it. I was initially not happy with how it ended, yet when I spent more time thinking it through, I realized the brilliance in it. I enjoyed the character development, the ways in which Edith Wharton misdirects, and how clever her points are once one ponders the novel as a whole. Once again, Edith Wharton wins me over.
