Set in the Gilded Age, the story follows Lily Bart, a beautiful young socialite navigating the complexities of high society in late 19th-century New York. Despite attracting wealthy suitors, including the affluent Percy Gryce, she grapples with societal expectations and her desire for true love, particularly with the less wealthy Lawrence Selden. As Lily's gambling habits and pursuit of genuine affection lead her into scandal, the narrative critiques the harsh double standards of her social circle, revealing a poignant tale of self-delusion and the precariousness of social standing.
