The House of Mirth, Paperback/Edith Wharton

``Professor Ammons' excellent edition is essential for students interested in a contextualized approach to Wharton's The House of Mirth.`` --Andrew Kopec, Indiana University-Purdue University Fort Wayne ``A staple in my feminist theory and sex-gender courses, this novel provides endless opportunities for discussion of the situation of women, of performing 'feminine, ' and of the insecurities and dangers for women in a society with limited economic possibilities. This is an excellent edition and I appreciate it.`` --Paula Backscheider, Auburn University
