"Professor Ammons' excellent edition is essential for students interested in a contextualized approach to Wharton's The House of Mirth." --Andrew Kopec, Indiana University-Purdue University Fort Wayne "A staple in my feminist theory and sex-gender courses, this novel provides endless opportunities for discussion of the situation of women, of performing 'feminine, ' and of the insecurities and dangers for women in a society with limited economic possibilities.

Madame de Treymes
ISBN: 9781512192124 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 36 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. John Durham, while he waited for Madame de Malrive to draw on her gloves, stood in the hotel doorway looking out across the Rue de Rivoli at the afternoon brightness of the Tuileries gardens. His European visits were infrequent enough to have kept unimpaired the freshness of his eye, and he was always struck anew by the vast and consummately ordered spectacle of Paris: by its look of having been boldly and deliberately planned as a background for the enjoyment of life, instead of being forced into grudging concessions to the festive instincts, or barricading itself against them in...

Summer (1917) by: Edith Wharton (novel)
ISBN: 9781530607181 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 100 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Considered by some to be her finest work, Edith Wharton's "Summer" created a sensation when first published in 1917, as it was one of the first novels to deal honestly with a young woman's sexual awakening. "Summer" is the story of proud and independent Charity Royall, a child of mountain moonshiners adopted by a family in a poor New England town, who has a passionate love affair with Lucius Harney, an educated young man from the city. Wharton broke the conventions of woman's romantic fiction by making Charity a thoroughly contemporary woman--in touch with her feelings and sexuality, yet kept...

Twilight Sleep
ISBN: 9780684839646 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Out of print for several decades, here is Edith Wharton's superb satirical novel of the Jazz Age, a critically praised best-seller when it was first published in 1927. Sex, drugs, work, money, infatuation with the occult and spiritual healing -- these are the remarkably modern themes that animate Twilight Sleep. The extended family of Mrs. Manford is determined to escape the pain, boredom and emptiness of life through whatever form of "twilight sleep" they can devise or procure. And though the characters and their actions may seem more in keeping with today's society, this is still a...

The Touchstone by Edith Wharton, Fiction, Literary, Classics
ISBN: 9781598183733 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 124 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. "The Touchstone" was Edith Wharton's first published novella, and it's spare, perhaps even underwritten. Even so, this Faustian tale of a man who stoops to publish love letters for money has mesmerizing, even dangerous qualities -- it has betrayals, greed, and consequences faced: hidden meanings emerge in places where we do not expect to find them. Perhaps, like Stephen Glennard in "The Touchstone," we will go mad with guilt, proving we do after all have a conscience. . . .
