A idade da inocência, escrita por Edith Wharton, es una de las novelas más emblemáticas de la literatura clásica del siglo XX. La obra ofrece un retrato mordaz y detallado de la alta sociedad de Nueva York en la década de 1870, explorando las tensiones entre el deseo individual y las rígidas convenciones sociales a través de la historia de Newland Archer, su prometida May Welland y la fascinante condesa Olenska. Esta edición forma parte de la colección 'Grandes Clássicos do Século XX' de la editorial Europa-América. Ganadora del Premio Pulitzer, la narrativa de Wharton destaca por su ironía y su profunda comprensión de los sacrificios impuestos por la etiqueta y el deber en una época de cambios inminentes.

Edith Newbold Wharton was an American writer and designer. Wharton drew upon her insider's knowledge of upper-class New York society to portray, realistically, the lives and morals of the Gilded Age. In 1921, she became the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction for her novel The Age of Innocence. She was inducted into the National Women's Hall of Fame in 1996. Her other well-known works are The House of Mirth, the novella Ethan Frome, and several notable ghost stories.
