图书简介
Considered by some to be her finest work, Edith Wharton's Summer tells the story of a young woman's sexual awakening in a poor New England town. Charity Royall, an independent and sexually-aware heroine, falls in love with Lucius Harney, an educated man from the city. Wharton's expert handling of the tensions between society, family, and individual desire make for a gripping read. Praised for its realism and honesty by writers such as Joseph Conrad and Henry James, Summer remains as relevant today as when it was first written. The Bantam Classics edition is an accessible and affordable option for readers of all backgrounds.
