Tentang eBook ini
In "The Long Run," Edith Wharton presents a penetrating exploration of ambition, societal constraints, and the complexities of human relationships. Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century America, Wharton'Äôs narrative employs a lyrical yet incisive prose style, intertwining intimate character studies with broader critiques of social norms and values. This nuanced examination of aspiration amidst societal expectations reflects the existential struggles faced by her characters, echoing the broader themes of her oeuvre, where the clash between individual desires and societal pressures is a defining motif. Edith Wharton, an influential literary figure and the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, was deeply influenced by her own experiences in the upper echelons of New York society. Her intimate knowledge of elite social circles informs "The Long Run," where the protagonist'Äôs pursuit of fulfilment mirrors Wharton's personal experiences with the expectations placed on women and the choices they navigated. Her sharp observation and evocative storytelling provide readers with a rich tapestry of life in a rapidly changing world. This novel is a must-read for anyone interested in the evolution of American literature or the intricate dynamics of social class and personal aspiration. Wharton'Äôs ability to weave a compelling narrative with profound emotional depth will resonate with readers seeking both entertainment and intellectual engagement.
