Considered by some to be her finest work, Edith Wharton’s Summer created a sensation when first published in 1917, as it was one of the first novels to deal honestly with a young woman’s sexual awakening.
Summer is the story of Charity Royall, a child of mountain moonshiners adopted by a family in a poor New England town, who has a passionate love affair with Lucius Harney, an educated man from the city. Wharton broke the conventions of women’s romantic fiction by making Charity a thoroughly independent modern woman—in touch with her emotions and sexuality, yet kept from love and the larger world she craves by the overwhelming pressures of heredity and society.
Praised for its realism and honesty by such writers as Joseph Conrad and Henry James and compared to Flaubert’s Madame Bovary , Summer remains as fresh and powerful a novel today as when it was first written.

Edith Wharton在37歲時列瞭一份自己最喜歡的文學作品清單: Madame Bovary, Flaubert Bouvard et Pecuchet, Flaubert 一本沒寫完但卻注定精采的作品 Adolfe, Constant The Charterhouse of Parma, Stendhal The Red and the Black, Stendhal 不禁在心中驚嘆:這個世界真小啊。...
評分這是一本難得的讀的順心的讓人感到安靜的小說,可是讀到瞭最後竟然還以為是一本結局圓滿的好故事,結果卻是一個女孩的悲劇故事,唉,我這算是沒看懂嗎?不過這是一本無論如何值得一讀的好書。很經典的好故事,一個天真的幻想,一個屌絲女的逆襲。

評分Very very sad story. She is just a fascinating but negligible Summer vacation for him, but for her, this might be the brightest period in life. Similar stories are still happening somewhere in this damn world even though this book has published over decades. I think this is probably why we still need to fight for gender equality.
評分Very delicately written. The heroine remained a whiny character, but through the self discovery adventures readers may truly empathise with her convincing sad ending.
評分作者的文筆非常優美,但故事老套又討厭。要談愛情,女性首先要獨立吧,不管是金錢還是感情上。
