Certain People

Originally published in 1930, we are proud to republish this classic text with a new introductory biography of the author. Renowned for her connections to giant literary and public figures of her time, Edith Wharton was an American writer best known for her insightful and witty portrayals of America’s privileged classes - of which Certain People is a prime example. A worthy addition to any bookshelf and a necessary one for any collector of Wharton’s work, don’t miss out on this quality republication of a scarce classic. Other influential books of Wharton’s include: The Age of Innocence (1920) - which made her the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for literature -, The Greater Inclination (1899), and In Morocco (1921).
