20 reviews for Three Novels of New York

  1. Sourav

    A classic for a reason. It was a good price too. Found some part slow to get through, but overall good.

  2. Raveesh

    I’ve wanted to read Wharton for ages! I enjoyed the first half better. Well written and insightful.

  3. Aditya Sinha

    I struggled to connect with the characters, particularly in “Custom of the Country.” Wharton’s writing is beautiful.

  4. Zeshan Ashraf

    Great value for three novels! I read it in one week. Enjoyed Franzen’s insights. A satisfying read.

  5. Pranjal Yadav

    “The Age of Innocence” is heartbreaking. I was gripped by the characters’ fates. A must-read classic.

  6. Sourajit Khan

    Good stories, but a bit depressing. I read the end too fast. Could have used more happy moments.

  7. Meenakshi Chaudhary

    Wharton’s prose is stunning. I got lost in old New York. A little boring at times, but overall wonderful.

  8. Neha Singh

    Not my favorite Wharton, but still a worthwhile read. A good one for book club. Too much detail in places.

  9. Anurag Srivastava

    Excellent collection. Wharton’s social commentary is still relevant. Binding felt a little flimsy, though.

  10. Namjas Kaur

    I’ve loved all three stories, great read, and easy to pick up at any time. Would recommend to any fan.

  11. Supriya Sahu

    Enjoyed revisiting these classics. “The Age of Innocence” is still my favorite. Some stories were a little slow.

  12. Vanshaj Bharia

    A good introduction to Wharton. Found “House of Mirth” most compelling. I felt it dragged a bit in the middle.

  13. Anshul Yadav

    A must-read for Wharton fans! Franzen’s introduction adds depth. However, “The Custom of the Country” felt a bit lengthy.

  14. Dhroopad Verma

    The stories evoke a bygone era. The women are very well developed. The edition is not very sturdy though.

  15. Aniket Narendra Rodge

    An excellent collection of Wharton’s novels. I loved the settings. Hard to put down. Highly recommended.

  16. Shubhi Verma

    Loved the glimpse into old New York society. The stories were great. But the book size is a bit unwieldy.

  17. Sourabh Singh Tomar

    Found the stories to be a bit repetitive. However, Wharton’s observations on class are fascinating. Solid read.

  18. Jaskirat Singh Pahwa

    A wonderful look into the past. I love learning about the social norms and how life was back then. Great read!

  19. Kartik Agrawal

    Wharton’s brilliance shines through. The collection is great but the font size is too small. Overall, a good read.

  20. Shivam Raj

    A wonderful collection for any classic literature lover! A bit slow at first, but then it takes off.
