The Age of Innocence
by Edith Wharton
Written in 1920, the true “age of innocence”, the novel is a clean romance. The couple’s love is unspoiled between the two of them, but when others in the community become suspicious, there are great consequences. You see, the man is engaged to another, and the woman is slightly older and already has a reputation as a marked woman because of her scandalous divorce.
This book is perfect for two types of people: those who absolutely loved the 1993 film adaptation, or those who devour Victorian novels with breakfast. Edith Wharton, a famous name among her genre, has written a heart-wrenching love story that is so similar to the film version, it’s as if you’re reading a screenplay.
