Infos

In 'Summer' by Edith Wharton, a captivating tale set in the rural landscapes of New England, the author explores the complex themes of morality, social class, and female sexuality. Written with Wharton's signature elegant prose and sharp wit, the novel delves into the turbulent love affair between the poor, young Charity Royall and the sophisticated Lucius Harney, challenging societal conventions and shedding light on the limitations imposed on women in the early 20th century. Wharton's keen observations of human nature and attention to detail make 'Summer' a compelling read that offers valuable insights into the constraints faced by individuals in a traditional society. The novel is a must-read for those interested in feminist literature and historical fiction, as it provides a nuanced portrayal of gender dynamics and class struggles during the Gilded Age.
