Edith Wharton, a prominent American novelist and short story writer, expertly depicted the lives and morals of New York's upper-class society during the Gilded Age. Her intimate understanding of this world allowed her to create realistic narratives that resonate with readers. In 1921, she made history as the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for Literature and was later honored with induction into the National Women's Hall of Fame in 1996, recognizing her significant contributions to literature.
