Edith Wharton
“The noble buoyancy of her attitude, its suggestion of soaring grace, revealed the touch of poetry in her beauty that Selden always felt in her presence, yet lost the sense of when he was not with her. Its expression was now so vivid that for the first time he seemed to see before him the real Lily Bart, divested of all the trivialities of her little world, and catching for a moment a note of that eternal harmony of which
her beauty was a part.”
Edith Wharton, The House of Mirth

Already she felt within her a stealing allegiance to their standards, an acceptance of their limitations, a disbelief in the things they did not believe in, a contemptuous pity for the people who were not able to live as they lived.”

“There were in her at the moment two beings, one drawing deep breaths of freedom and exhilaration, the other gasping for air in a little black prison-house of fears.

Edith Wharton

Jonathan Franzen

“But Wharton hadn’t published any of her books while she lived in this
house. At Land’s End, she had been unknown, an unhappy married woman.
She had not yet become the real Edith Wharton. Not yet divorced. Not yet a
novelist. Not yet a war correspondent in France. She wonders how
terrifying it felt, not to know any of this about herself, to sit out on this big
lawn, looking at the sea, feeling like she was at the very end of it all. She
wonders what it was that made her realize there was somewhere else to go.”
Alison Espach, The Wedding People
