A born storyteller whose career stretched over forty years, Edith Wharton (1862-1937) was the first woman to receive an honorary degree from Yale and to win the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. Best known for writing such iconic novels as The Age of Innocence, The House of Mirth, Ethan Frome and The Custom of the Country, she was also a talented designer, a tireless traveler and a passionate philanthropist. From the beaches of Newport to the front lines of WWI France and beyond, EDITH WHARTON: THE SENSE OF HARMONY takes a sweeping look at the life and legacy of the literary master.
