Romantik
In Edith Wharton's novel, The Age of Innocence, she delves into the rigid social expectations and constraints of New York City's elite in the 1870s. Through the intricate love triangle between Newland Archer, May Welland, and Countess Olenska, Wharton explores themes of societal conventions, forbidden love, and the price of conformity. Wharton's prose is rich with detail and symbolism, painting a vivid picture of a society grappling with change and tradition. The novel is considered a classic work of American literature, showcasing Wharton's keen insight into human nature and society. As a member of the New York aristocracy herself, Edith Wharton drew upon her own experiences and observations to craft The Age of Innocence. Her intimate knowledge of the social customs and expectations of the time period adds depth and authenticity to the novel, making it a compelling and thought-provoking read. Wharton's critical view of the strict codes of conduct that governed the lives of the upper class shines through in her portrayal of the characters and their struggles. I highly recommend The Age of Innocence to readers who enjoy immersive historical fiction and thought-provoking explorations of society and love. Edith Wharton's masterpiece continues to captivate audiences with its timeless themes and beautifully crafted narrative.
