Zusammenfassung: | This richly illustrated biography portrays Edith Wharton the writer, traveler, socialite, gardener, architect, interior designer, art scholar, expatriate, war worker, and connoisseur of life. The more than 300 illustrations include photographs--some by Wharton herself--as well as selected drawings, paintings, garden plans, letters, and postcards, many of which have never before been published. A chronology, selected bibliography, and index round out the volume, which re-creates in vivid detail the life of this multi-faceted, extraordinary woman. |
