Au siècle dernier, trois familles américaines qui ne parviennent pas à s'intégrer à la bonne société new-yorkaise, les Saint-George, les Clossom et les Elmsworth, décident de tenter leur chance en Angleterre. Sitôt débarquées, leurs filles s'élancent à la conquête de l'aristocratie britannique, aspirant à un mariage qui leur apportera argent et amour.

About the Author:

Edith Wharton (1862-1937), American novelist and short-story writer, was born in New York City. Strongly influenced by Henry James, she is best known for her subtle and su-perbly crafted studies of the tragedies and ironies in the lives of members of middle-class and artistocratic New York soci-ety in the the nineteenth century. She was educated in New York and Europe, and married Edward Wharton, a Boston banker, in 1885. When her husband became mentally ill, she cared for him until 1913, when she settled permanently in France and divorced him. Among her best and most characteristic works are The House of Mirth (1905) and The Age of Innocence (1920), for which she received a Pultizer prize.
