(Book Jacket Status: Jacketed) The Age of Innocence , one of Edith Wharton’s most renowned novels and the first by a woman to win the Pulitzer Prize, exquisitely details the struggle between love and responsibility through the experiences of men and women in Gilded Age New York. The novel follows Newland Archer, a young, aristocratic lawyer engaged to the cloistered, beautiful May Welland. When May’s disgraced cousin Ellen arrives from Europe, fleeing her marriage to a Polish Count, her worldly, independent nature intrigues Archer, who soon falls in love with her. Trapped by his passionless relationship with May and the social conventions that forbid a relationship with Ellen, Archer finds himself torn between possibility and duty. Wharton’s profound understanding of her characters’ lives makes the triangle of Archer, May, and Ellen come to life with an irresistible urgency. A wry, incisive look at the ways in which love and emotion must negotiate the complex rules of high society, The Age of Innocence is one of Wharton's finest, most illuminative works. With an introduction by Peter Washington

讀完五味雜陳,一開始我是極度討厭Ellen,可能以真愛角度看來May纔是令人討厭的那個畢竟作者無數次按時Ellen與Archer纔是心靈契閤的靈魂伴侶,但是這世界並不是隻有真愛啊。我是心疼May的,她完全是屬於被動的那個。讀著讀著也就不討厭Ellen瞭畢竟,所以一切都是Archer的懦弱,當斷不斷。其實他跟Ellen在一起就會幸福嗎,或許最後也不過就是張愛玲的“紅玫瑰與白玫瑰”罷瞭。
