Support

In ‘Sanctuary, ‘ Edith Wharton explores the complexities of human relationships against the backdrop of social hypocrisy and moral decay in post-World War I America. Written in Wharton’s signature prose that deftly combines psychological insight with social commentary, the novel delves into themes of betrayal, redemption, and the search for a safe haven from the tumult of modern existence. Wharton’s meticulous attention to detail and rich character development provide a vivid tableau of the era’s shifting values, making this work both a poignant narrative and a striking critique of societal norms. Edith Wharton, an eminent American novelist and the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for Literature, often drew upon her own privileged background and extensive social circle for insights into the lives and struggles of her characters. Her continuous examination of the upper class and the moral dilemmas they faced was influenced by her acute awareness of the disparities and complexities within American society. ‘Sanctuary’ reflects her deep concern for human existential crises and personal integrity amid societal constraints. Readers seeking a masterful exploration of the human psyche intertwined with incisive social critique will find ‘Sanctuary’ to be an essential read. Wharton’s rich narrative not only captures the fragility of trust and connection but also urges readers to reflect on their own moral compasses in an increasingly fragmented world.
