Set in New York City's high society at the turn of the 20th century, the novel follows Lily Bart, a beautiful yet impoverished woman facing dwindling marital prospects as she approaches her 29th birthday. Over two years, Lily's social standing deteriorates, leading her to a lonely existence on the fringes of society. Edith Wharton critiques the morally corrupt upper class through Lily's struggles, making a poignant statement about wealth and social expectations. This work is significant in Wharton's literary career and has influenced many American authors.
