520			_aThis book examines the life and career of the American author, Edith Wharton.
520			_aEdith Wharton, author of Ethan Frome, The House of Mirth, and other acclaimed novels, was born into a wealthy family. Beginning in childhood, Edith found ways to escape from society’s and her family’s expectations and follow an unconventional, creative path. Unhappily married and eventually divorced, she surrounded herself with male friends. She spent much of her life in Paris and was recognized by the French government for her generosity and hard work during World War I. Her literary and personal life, her witty and incisive correspondence, her fondness for automobiles and small dogs-all are detailed in this warm and sparkling account of a woman well ahead of her time. Includes a bibliography, source notes, and an index.--Publisher description.
