Charles Scribner's Sons, 1914. Hardcover. Very Good. EARLY Editions. FOUR Volumes in Very Good + condition, Red cloth with dulled spine titles. Very early editions, all dated 1914 - all bound in same cloth with a decorative publishers blind stamp on front cover. Clean and tight with only minor wear at crown (all volumes are just starting to fray and have micro splits at crown). The volumes have light foxing to blank end-papers, not impacting interior pages. Classic works. Each has a b/w photo frontispiece. Author best known for "The Age of Innocence". No interior markings.A good looking set. Due to extra weight, a bit of Extra postage necessary to cover 4 volumes. So worth it.
Sinopsis
The Reef, a semi-autobiographical novel that attacks the hypocrisies of New York society of which author Edith Wharton had long been a member, was praised by contemporaries as her best work since Ethan Frome. The novel challenged the morality of the times in the person of George Darrow, a diplomat who drifts into an affair with another woman after his proposal of marriage to widow Anna Leath receives a cool response.
