If you like Edith Wharton like I do, this is a candy store of tales written in brilliant prose. The collection of stories also spans her career as a writer and the dramatic changes in society during her lifetime. I really loved this book.

Price: $11.20

Customer Review:
It's really necessary to read this book more than once. The author has created great depth of character, and every personality is well-developed. It's true that the characters are not "nice" or particularly likable, but they are endlessly interesting and realistic. I can't believe this whole story... more info

from Perennial

Customer Review:
How could they allow this book to go out of print? I found the stories paint the world my family lives in accurately. Ms. Robinson shows keen observation of the WASP world, with all its hangups and repression, and yet her characters are sympathetic to various degrees. Try the wonderful story,... more info
