Edith Wharton (1862 – 1937) was a Pulitzer Prize-winning American novelist and short story writer. The Age of Innocence (1920) won the 1921 Pulitzer Prize for literature, making Wharton the first woman to win the award. Many of Wharton's novels are characterized by a subtle use of dramatic irony. Having grown up in upper-class pre-World War I society, Wharton became one of its most astute critics, in such works as The House of Mirth and The Age of Innocence. In addition to writing several respected novels, Wharton produced a wealth of short stories and is particularly well regarded for her ghost stories.This carefully crafted ebook is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents and the following works: Afterward, The Age of Innocence, Artemis to Actaeon and Other Verses, Autres Temps…, Bunner Sisters, The Choice, Coming Home, Crucial Instances, The Custom of the Country, The Descent of Man & Other Stories, The Early Short Fiction of Edith Wharton, Volume 1, The Early Short Fiction of Edith Wharton, Volume 2, Ethan Frome, Fighting France, The Fruit of the Tree, The Glimpses of the Moon, The Greater Inclination, The Hermit and the Wild Woman, The House of Mirth, In Morocco, Kerfol, The Long Run, Madame de Treymes, The Reef, Sanctuary, Summer, Tales of Men and Ghosts, The Touchstone, The Triumph of Night, The Valley of Decision, Xingu.
