New York at the turn of the century. In The Quicksand<\/em>, Edith Wharton<\/strong>, author of the novel The Age of Innocence<\/em>, gives us a glimpse of the aristocratic Manhattan of the time. Unfolding on a pre-summer day at the Upper East Side\u2019s Metropolitan Museum of Art, this multi-layered short story brings unexpected twists and ironic consequences in a triangle drama between a distinguished mother, her passionate son, and his free-thinking lover.<\/p>\n

Edith Wharton<\/strong> (1862\u20131937) was born in New York into a stern high-society family at a time when women were scarcely encouraged to pursue ambitions beyond entering into a suitable marriage. Despite her parents\u2019 strict rules, Wharton emerged as one of The United States\u2019 preeminent writers. Set against the backdrop of old New York, her work delved into the lives and values of highborn and well-to-do families in the period following the American Civil War. Over the course of her prolific career, Wharton penned more than forty books and earned three nominations for the Nobel Prize in Literature. In 1921, she made history as the first woman to be awarded the Pulitzer Prize for her novel The Age of Innocence<\/em>, later adapted into Martin Scorsese\u2019s<\/strong> critically acclaimed film in 1993. The short story The Quicksand<\/em> debuted in the June 1902 issue of Harper\u2019s Magazine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
