{"product_id":"a-backward-glance-an-autobiography","title":"A Backward Glance: An Autobiography","description":"Edith Wharton, the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize, vividly reflects on her public and private life in this stunning memoir.\n\nWith richness and delicacy, it describes the sophisticated New York society in which Wharton spent her youth, and chronicles her travels throughout Europe and her literary success as an adult. Beautifully depicted are her friendships with many of the most celebrated artists and writers of her day, including her close friend Henry James.\n\nIn his introduction to this edition, Louis Auchincloss calls the writing in A Backward Glance “as firm and crisp and lucid as in the best of her novels.” It is a memoir that will charm and fascinate all readers of Wharton’s fiction.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0684847558\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: 31URM800E91V_ns\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Wharton, Edith|Auchincloss, Louis\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item is very worn but is perfectly usable.
