The literary style is characterized by Whartons nuanced prose and psychological depth, vividly bringing to life the interpersonal dynamics of her characters while evoking a haunting atmosphere that permeates the narratives. The book, an essential artifact of American literature, reflects Whartons keen observations of social mores, the interplay of class, and the unseen forces that shape human behavior. Edith Wharton, the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, drew from her privileged upbringing and her extensive travels to craft stories that merge personal anguish with social critique. Coming of age in an era marked by strict societal norms, Whartons experiences navigating elite society informed her writing, allowing her to explore themes of isolation and the uncanny with remarkable fidelity. Her adeptness at depicting the lives of those ensnared by their own expectations gives the collection a unique poignancy that resonates with readers. Readers seeking profound reflections on identity and the spectral nature of existence will find "Tales of Men and Ghosts" indispensable. Whartons exquisite craftsmanship and her ability to echo the dilemmas of her time make this collection a timeless exploration of the human psyche and an invitation to confront our own specters, making it a recommended read for both enthusiasts of gothic literature and literary scholars alike.</p>...2288937Tales of Men and Ghosts4545https://www.gandhi.com.mx/tales-of-men-and-ghosts-4057664101228/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/2069864/1dff7172-b58f-43cb-98bb-ed33b80c4860.jpg?v=638383465429000000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20194057664101228_W3siaWQiOiI5YmY0Y2JmZC0yODUyLTQxM2UtOTkxNS01ZDBmM2E3ZTYyZDIiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjQ1LCJkaXNjb3VudCI6MCwic2VsbGluZ1ByaWNlIjo0NSwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjUtMDEtMDJUMjI6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d4057664101228_pTales of Men and Ghosts is a collection of stories on various topics first published in 1912. Despite the name, only two stories in the collection tell of the supernatural. Other topics vary from dealing with intellectual fashions of the day, like Darwinism or Nietzscheanism, to the manners of life in New York. The author puts her characters to moral and ironic tests, creating an engaging read for everyone./p(*_*)4057664101228_<p>Edith Whartons Tales of Men and Ghosts is a collection of eerie and thought-provoking short stories that combine elements of the supernatural with social commentary. Whartons writing style in this collection is characterized by its subtle irony and keen observations of human nature, making each tale both haunting and insightful. Set in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the stories reflect the societal norms and values of the time, while also delving into deeper themes of love, betrayal, and the boundaries between the living and the dead. Whartons ability to blend the ghostly with the everyday creates a captivating and atmospheric reading experience. Edith Wharton, a Pulitzer Prize-winning author known for her keen insights into high society and social conventions, drew upon her own experiences as a member of New Yorks elite to write Tales of Men and Ghosts. With a knack for exposing the complexities of human relationships and societal expectations, Wharton brings a unique perspective to her exploration of the supernatural in this collection. I highly recommend Tales of Men and Ghosts to readers who enjoy gothic literature, as well as those interested in the intersection of the supernatural and human nature. Whartons storytelling prowess and nuanced characterizations make this collection a must-read for fans of ghost stories and literary fiction alike.</p>...(*_*)4057664101228_<p>In "Tales of Men and Ghosts," Edith Wharton masterfully intertwines the realms of reality and the supernatural, crafting a collection of short stories that explore the complexities of human emotions and societal expectations in late 19th and early 20th century America.
