Produktinformationen zu „Xingu (ePub)“

Edith Wharton's 'Xingu' is a captivating novella that offers a satirical take on the pretentiousness of high society. Set in early 20th century New York, the story follows a group of wealthy women who form a literary discussion club, only to be exposed for their lack of true intellectual depth during a visit from a knowledgeable guest. Wharton's writing style is sharp and witty, highlighting the absurdity of the characters' behavior while exploring themes of social class and intellectualism. 'Xingu' is a prime example of Wharton's keen observations of high society and her ability to critique it with humor and insight. Wharton's own experiences as a member of the elite social circles she writes about undoubtedly influenced the creation of this entertaining work. Readers interested in social satire and thought-provoking commentary on class distinctions will find 'Xingu' both enjoyable and thought-provoking.
