from The Edith Wharton Library · host Edith Wharton

In which the widower Mason Grew uproots himself to Brooklyn to delicately balance his desire for closeness with his son Ronald and the careful maintenance of their social boundaries, all the while nurturing secret hopes entwined with his son’s burgeoning place in a glittering new world.
