Description

Beautiful, intelligent, and hopelessly addicted to luxury, Lily Bart is the heroine of this Wharton masterpiece. But it is her very taste and moral sensibility that render her unfit for survival in this world.




Praise For The House of Mirth

Uniquely authentic among American novels of manners. (Louis Auchincloss)
