You mean she gifted us,I suppose😅

Beautifully written. Beautifully read. Thank you

A thousand thank yous for continuing to being the cause of the extremely restful end to my day

What an exquisite story. I've never before been impressed by Wharton. Several delectable quotes. If only all conversations between each of us could be as consistently honest.

How sad to realise your child turned out to be your worst nightmare.

What a sad story, but love is so often accompanied by heartache. I think the mother is correct.

Young Miss dodged a bullet. Thanks mom 😅

….The mother is that rarest of women : Incapable of self-deception, she insists upon stripping all artifice and illusion from her personal biography, facing the often ugly truth-while taking personal responsibility for a share of that ugliness…. I admire her character enormously.

BRILLIANT Timing 😉🌞🌻💜🌈

Such a beautiful rendition of a work of genius.

Thank you!! Another Edith Wharton!!

Enjoyed that a lot

I’m afraid I always felt marriage involved feelings of both mental and physical forms of constriction, such that I wasn’t even aware of feeling that way until I left and said, “Who am I?”

this is my favorite channel

Afraid I've no patience for this stylized badinage.

The style reflects the era. There's other content you might prefer. F Scott Fitzgerald, Somerset Maugham, Joseph Conrad among others

Your use of the word "badinage" seems to contradict your attitude. Perhaps it's your persnikityness that blinds you to Wharton's beautiful and sad tale.

@nattneillninasmom Badinage? I did not hear a single bit of badinage in this story, on the contrary ;)

It so good that I think I actually dislike these people (characters).

Cant take any more badinage

Have realised that narrators must always read dispassionately .. this is an example of the opposite … That’s probably why male narrators are preferred. (the feminine

Poppycock! This narrator is so perfect for this that your gender bias proves you to be ridiculous.
