November: Age of Innocence
Once again, Book Club last night engaged in an interesting discussion about class, constraints, etiquette, etc while discussing an old classic, Edith Wharton's Age of Innocence which won a Pulitzer prize for fiction. An excellent writer worth a re read as many probably read it in college.
A movie was made in 1993 that featured Daniel Day Lewis, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Winona Ryder. The film won an Oscar for best costume.
An interesting article about Edith Wharton appears in the New Yorker in June of 2009:
