   Edith Wharton was born in New York, NY, into a wealthy and socially prominent family. EDITHWHARTON COLLECTED STORIES, 19111937, 2001 (ed. by Maureen Howard).

   Extractions: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback Edith Wharton (1862-1937) - original surname Jones American author, best-known for her stories and ironic novels about upper class people. Wharton's central subjects were the conflict between social and individual fulfillment, repressed sexuality, and the manners of old families and the 'nouveau riche', who had made their fortunes in more recent years. Wharton was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for her novel THE AGE OF INNOCENCE (1920). The jury had voted for Sinclair Lewis 's highly popular book Main Street , but the Columbia University trustees overturned the decision. Lewis dedicated his next work, Arrowsmith , to Wharton. "I was never allowed to read the popular American children's books of my day because, as my mother said, the children spoke bad English without the author's knowing it. " (from A Backward Glance The Letters of Edith Wharton The Whartons spent much time in Europe from 1906. Although she maintained after their divorce in 1913 a residence in the U.S., she continued to live in France, where she spent the rest of her life. She became a literary hostess to young writers at her Paris apartment and her garden home in the south of France. Among her friends were Henry James, Walter Berry and Bernard Berenson, with whom she traveled in Germany in 1913. Berenson later told his wife Mary that when he had a dinner with Edith in a hotel, she "eyed a young man at a neighboring table and said: 'When I see such a type my first thought is how to put him into my next novel.'"

   http://www.litgothic.com/Authors/wharton.html
   
   Extractions: American writer (birthname Edith Jones, which I mention because it may have implications for one of her ghost stories, "Mr. Jones"; she married Teddy Wharton in 1884, and the marriage deteriorated rapidly, ending in divorce in 1913). Wharton is best known for her realist works The House of Mirth The Age of Innocence , and Ethan Frome , but produced a small number of excellent supernaturalist stories, primarily in the psychological (Henry Jamesian) mode. (Wharton was in fact a close friend of James' and was significantly influenced by him.)

   http://www.yetanotherbookreview.com/ghost_stories_of_edith_wharton.htm
   
   Extractions: Long on atmosphere but short on chills, this collection should be read and studied more for its grammatical perfection and "window on an era" perspective than for its scare factor. This is certainly not to imply that the stories are boring, because they are not, but if all aspiring authors - this bozo included - were forced to study Ms. Wharton's prose, the literary world, though still littered with repetitive ideas, would be blessed with less hack writers.

    Extractions: I n her long career, which stretched over forty years and included the publication of more than forty books, Edith Wharton (1862-1937) portrayed a fascinating segment of the American experience. She was a born storyteller, whose novels are justly celebrated for their vivid settings, satiric wit, ironic style, and moral seriousness. Her characters, such as Ellen Olenska in The Age of Innocence, Ethan Fromme , and the charming but ineffectual Lily Bart in The House of Mirth , are some of the most memorable in American literature. Often portrayed as tragic victims of cruel social conventions, they are trapped in bad relationships or confining circumstances. Her own life stands as an example of the obstacles that a woman of her time and place had to overcome to find self-realization. E dith Wharton's writing career was launched one hundred years ago, with the publication of her first book, The Decoration of Houses , written with her architect friend, Ogden Codman. The Decoration of Houses was an immediate success, and encouraged the emergence of professional decorators in the new style, such as Elsie de Wolfe.

    Extractions: Links Bibliography Criticism Domestic Goddesses Home Domestic Goddess Edith Wharton once said, about critics and biographers: "After all, one knows one's weak points so well, that it's rather bewildering to have the critics overlook them & invent others." It seems that there is an abundance of blatantly wrong or just slightly incorrect information about Wharton's life and literature; it also seems that this problem was one Wharton herself faced. Born Edith Jones, January 24, 1862, she went on to become the first woman to ever win the Pulitzer prize for her novel The Age of Innocence, in 1921. You can read Wharton's own impressions of her life in the autobiography A Backward Glance. Her life story is as interesting as those of the women in her novels, and the biography by Lewis (see works cited link) is an excellent source of history, entertainment and context. One of Wharton's ancestors, Ebenezer Stevens, participated in the Boston Tea Party, and had this to say about the legend of this Revolutionary event: The party was about seventy or eighty. At the head of the wharf we met the detachment of our company. . . We commenced handling the boxes of tea on deck, at first commenced breaking them with axes, but found much difficulty . . . We were careful to prevent any being taken away; n
