Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. 2010 Routledge hardcover edition. Light reading wear else very good condition. During her lifetime, Edith Wharton was one of America's most popular and prolific writers, publishing over forty books and winning the Pulitzer Prize for fiction. But after her death her work slipped out of favour, and it is only in the last thirty years that her reputation as a literary heavyweight and a great writer has recovered. Bringing together twelve leading Wharton scholars from Europe and North America, this volume offers the first ever collection of essays on Wharton's 1913 tour de force, The Custom of the Country. Described as 'her greatest book' by Hermione Lee in her acclaimed 2007 biography of the writer, and listed by Wharton herself at the end of a long and prolific career as one of her own favourite works, The Custom of the Country arguably remains the author's most complex and controversial novel. The contributions to this collection demonstrate the continuing evolution of Wharton scholarship within modern critical approaches. Contents: 1) The Custom of the Country: Edith Wharton's Conversation with the Atlantic Monthly (2) When the Reading Had to Stop: Readers, Reading and the Circulation of Texts in The Custom of the Country (3) 'Don't Cry - it ain't that Kind of a Story': Wharton's Business of Fiction, 1908-12 (4) Worst Parents Ever: Cultures of Childhood in The Custom of the Country (5) Crude Ascending the Staircase: Undine Spragg and the Armory Show (6) 'It's Better to Watch': Compulsive Voyeurism in The Custom of the Country and The House of Mirth (7) A 'Mist of Opopanax': Mapping the Scentscape of The Custom of the Country (8) Landscape with the Fall of Undine (9) Girls from the Provinces: Wharton's Undine Spragg and Cather's The Song of the Lark (10) Men at Work in The Custom of the Country (11) 'Lost in Translation': Financial Plots and the Modernist Reader in The Custom of the Country.…
