Life-like characters populate this collection of ten narratives that blend the eerie with the poignant.

Class struggles and strained familial relationships are central in "His Father's Son," while supernatural elements surface in tales like "The Eyes" and "Afterward," which address repressed sexuality and betrayal. Wharton examines human flaws like vanity and greed, creating a relatable portrayal of 20th-century society. This updated edition enhances the original's captivating prose.
