Al lector mecánico. Edith Wharton

Para el lector mecánico, los libros, una vez leídos, no son cosas que crecen, echan raíces y tienen ramas que se entrelazan, sino que son como fósiles etiquetados y guardados en los cajones del armario de un geólogo; o, mejor dicho, como prisioneros condenados de por vida a un confinamiento solitario. Para una mentalidad de este tipo, los libros nunca hablan entre sí.

Edith Wharton.

#EdithWharton

I've just dropped my latest Modern Library essay on Edith Wharton's THE AGE OF INNOCENCE. I'm not as hot on this admittedly dazzling novel as others (Team Lily Bart forever!), but I did my best to be honest about my love for Wharton and my absolute abhorrence for Newland Archer, surely the 1870s answer to an aimless crypto-trading dudebro complaining about the "male loneliness epidemic."

The Age of Innocence (Modern Library #58) - Reluctant Habits

Edith Wharton's classic novel is a more somber and often breathtaking warning about the dangers of conforming with the upper crust. But the reading experience is not made easy by Newland Archer, the dudebro of his time, being Wharton's most insufferable protagonist.

"Por primera vez en la vida atisbaba la horrible cuestión de la inutilidad de los sacrificios personales. Hasta entonces ni se le había pasado por las mientes poner en duda los principios heredados que habían regido su vida".

Happy birthday, Edith Wharton (b. 1/24/1862)!
