The Early Short Stories of Edith Wharton

Part 1

User Avatar
Edith Wharton
Contributors: Krystyna Michael

This collection includes five of Wharton's early short stories written, but not always published in the 1880's and 90's. These short stories show the range of Wharton's fiction beyond the society novels that she is best known for, as they include "Mrs. Manstey's View," which relates the story of a woman living in a tenement, as well as "The House of the Dead," which was one of Wharton's first ghost stories. Click on "Text" below to read the text, and then browse through the resources that are included in the "Resource Collection" below.
