Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 21 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Artists, Writers, & Musicians Publisher's Summary: This new edition includes two chapters: one on Lily Bart and the lethal stereotypes of women on the 19th-century stage, and another on the way Wharton's own sensual awakening led from the frozen austerity of Ethan Frome to the lyricism and tempered happiness of Summer.
