{"product_id":"9781107301290","title":"Edith Wharton in Context","description":"Edith Wharton was one of America's most popular and prolific writers, becoming the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1921. In a publishing career spanning seven decades, Wharton lived and wrote through a period of tremendous social, cultural and historical change. Bringing together a team of international scholars, this volume provides the first substantial text dedicated to the various contexts that frame Wharton's remarkable career. Each essay offers a clearly argued and lucid assessment of Wharton's work as it relates to seven key areas: life and works, critical receptions, book and publishing history, arts and aesthetics, social designs, time and place, and literary milieux. These sections provide a broad and accessible resource for students coming to Wharton for the first time while offering scholars new critical insights.","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47072760627440,"sku":"9781107301290","price":72.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781107301290_p0.jpg?v=1763690664","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781107301290","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
