Book Synopsis



Martin Scorsese extrajo de La edad de la inocencia una bellísima película, protagonizada por Michelle Pfeiffer, Daniel
Day-Lewis y Winona Ryder.

Al amable mundo de convenciones sociales estrictas en el que se mueve, aparentemente sin roces ni contrariedades, la alta sociedad de Nueva York de finales del siglo XIX, regresa de Europa la inquietante condesa Olenska. Independiente, osada, «diferente», ella involucrará muy pronto en su misterio a su joven primo, Newland Archer, y perturbará el encanto de una vida social que ignora de manera voluntaria su inminente fin. En el fondo de esta extraordinaria historia de una gran pasión subyace el conflicto entre dos mundos: el de las viejas familias «patricias» norteamericanas y el de los nuevos ricos, quienes, al terminar la novela, se han apoderado ya de las costumbres y de los espíritus.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Edith Wharton's masterwork captures the opulence and deceit of a bygone era.

It follows Newland Archer, a young lawyer engaged to marry virginal socialite May Welland in 1870s New York, when he meets her cousin, Countess Ellen Olenska, a lady unrestrained by convention and surrounded by scandal. Archer must choose between happiness and the social code that has governed his life as all three are dragged into a love triangle packed with sensuality, cunning, and betrayal. Irony and surprise, struggle and acceptance abound in the resulting story of failed love.

This classic novel, which won the first Pulitzer Prize for fiction ever given to a woman, paints a timeless depiction of "society."
