Great Classic Library Omnibus paperback in Very Good condition (563 pages)

Gathered together in one volume, three outstanding novels by Edith Wharton (complete and unabridged):

The Age of Innocence: The Countess Olenska returns to the rigid society of old New York after separating from her husband.  Her independence and fresh awareness of life challenge everything Newland Archer believes in - from his fiancée May Welland to the ordered world that has shaped him.

The House of Mirth: The beautiful Lily Bart is in search of a husband who can maintain her in the style she craves in the affluent society of New York City.  But her hopes end in disaster when rumours circulate that she is the mistress of a wealthy man.

Ethan Frome: In this bitter novel set against the austere New England countryside, Ethan Frome struggles to scrape a living from his small farm, hampered by his suspicious and sickly wife Zeena.  His dreams of happiness with her high-spirited cousin Mattie are shattered by events that condemn the trio to a tragic, futile life together.
