Description

Twilight Sleep, a gothic satire of Jazz Age New York, was an instant best-seller when it was released in 1927. Quintessential Edith Wharton, it is stylish and sharp, at turns scathing, hilarious and melodramatic, but also deeply and surprisingly human. In a modernist twist, the story is told by three distinct narrators-19-year-old Nona Manford, her unflappable socialite mother Pauline, and Nona's father and Pauline's second husband, divorce lawyer Dexter Manford. All are trying to save the marriage of Nona's half-brother, Jim Wyant, and his wife Lita. And in doing so, all are confronting their own fears and frustrations and devising ever more outlandish means of escape.
