About This Novel
"The Age of Innocence" is the representative work of the famous American writer Edith Wharton, which won the 1921 Pulitzer Prize. The film of the same name is directed by Martin Scorsese and stars Daniel Day-Lewis, Michelle Pfeiffer, Winona Ryder and others. The main plot of the book takes place in the upper class society of New York in the late 1870s and early 1880s. It was the place where Wharton spent her childhood and youth, where she grew up, entered society, became engaged and disengaged, and then married Edward Wharton of Boston, where she spent the first few years of her marriage. Forty years later, as a novelist, she looks back at the society that raised her and restrained her. Her feelings are complex, with both cordial attachment and sober criticism.
