(H/B) THE HOUSE OF MIRTH

Παρουσίαση

Alone in the great social whirl of New York high society, with little but her wit and beauty to support her, Lily Bart pays the ultimate price for defying convention and the hostesses of the Social Register. Edith Wharton's beautifully told tale of Lily's decline and fall matches the novels of Henry James in power and skill, while shedding a light on its subject denied to her male contemporary.
