With her husband ill and ladies of leisure looking down their respective noses at her, she is faced with some difficult decisions. Old New York is beautifully described in this, the last of Wharton\'s novellas set here, and the social conventions of the time don\'t escape her critical eye. With an unexpected plot twist, this is a superb read for Wharton fans and those who want to get to know her work. Zdroj anotace: Web obalkyknih.czNačítání…
