The Age of Innocence

The Age of Innocence

The Age of Innocence by Edith Wharton (1862–1937) is a classic novel set in the upper-class society of New York in the 1870s. This free audiobook takes listeners on a journey through the lives of Newland Archer, a young lawyer, and two women who profoundly shape his future: his innocent fiancée, May Welland, and the unconventional Countess Ellen Olenska. Wharton masterfully critiques the rigid social codes and expectations of the time, exploring themes of love, duty, and sacrifice. As one of Wharton’s most celebrated works, The Age of Innocence earned her the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1921, making her the first woman to receive this honor.
