Autorenporträt
Edith Wharton (1862-1937) was one of the most accomplished and discerning literary figures of the early twentieth century, celebrated for her incisive portrayals of American society and the moral intricacies that underlie human ambition and desire. The first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, she authored enduring masterpieces such as The Age of Innocence, Ethan Frome, and The House of Mirth, blending psychological acuity with an architect's sense of structure and design. A cosmopolitan intellect shaped by both Old World refinement and New World dynamism, Wharton brought to her criticism the same elegance, authority, and moral clarity that define her fiction. In The Writing of Fiction, she offers not merely instruction, but a distilled philosophy of literature-born of a writer who lived deeply within the form.
