Newland Archer, soon to marry the lovely May Welland, is a man torn between his respect for tradition and family and his attraction to May's strongly independent cousin, the Countess Ellen Olenska. Plagued by the desire to live in a world where two people can love each other free from condemnation and judgment by the group, Newland views the artful delicacy of the world he lives in as a comforting security one moment, and at another, as an oppressive fiction masking true human nature. The Age of Innocence is at once a richly drawn portrait of the elegant lifestyles, luxurious brownstones, and fascinating culture of bygone New York society and a compelling look at the conflict between human passions and the social tribe that tries to control them.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Edith Wharton","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53094271942880,"sku":"9780860680697","price":115.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/5681\/6608\/files\/61VJZspKVBL._SY522.jpg?v=1781651297","url":"https:\/\/medicalbook.online\/products\/the-age-of-innocence-virago-modern-classics","provider":"medicalbook.online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
