The fruit of the tree. With illus. by Alonzo Kimball

Brimming with romance and important social questions, Edith Wharton's novel The Fruit of the Tree offers something for everyone. The story expertly weaves themes of workers' rights, medical ethics, and end-of-life care into the framework of a conventional -- but pulse-pounding -- romantic entanglement.

  • "Un roman à la "générosité appliquée" mais peu réussi, dans lequel l'amie de Henry James dénonce la dureté de la condition ouvrière. Wharton n'est pas Zola. Selon Bianciotti, son oeuvre a des affinités avec celle d'Ibsen."
  • "Brimming with romance and important social questions, Edith Wharton's novel The Fruit of the Tree offers something for everyone.

  • "In its 1907 review, the New York Times described The Fruit of the Tree as a diamond in a heap of rubble." In Edith Wharton's third novel she looks at the working class and its problems, the conflict between capital and labor and, characteristically, the question of moral responsibility."
  • "One of Edith Wharton's few novels to deal directly with issues such as euthanasia, the problems of labor and industrial conditions, and professions for women, as well as Wharton's more customary themes such as divorce."@en
