Set in the luxurious and constricting world of New York's Gilded Age, The Age of Innocence tells the story of Newland Archer, a young man of high standing engaged to the beautiful but conventional May Welland. When Newland's cousin, Countess Ellen Olenska, returns to New York after a scandalous divorce, he is captivated by her independent spirit and alluring charm. Torn between his duty to his family and his undeniable attraction to Ellen, Newland must make a choice that will determine the course of his life.
Winner of the 1921 Pulitzer Prize, this razor-sharp tale of desire and betrayal remains a timeless classic in American literature.
