Social class is a big theme. The 16th - century had a rigid class structure. Her novel might have shown the differences in the lives, opportunities, and restrictions of different classes. For example, the upper class might have had more power and privilege but also more expectations to uphold, while the lower classes faced different kinds of hardships.

Definitely. Social norms in the 16th century, like the importance of family honor and the proper conduct of the nobility, were likely to have influenced Edith Wharton's novel. Her work may have shown how characters either upheld or defied these norms. For example, a character's pursuit of love might have been thwarted by the need to maintain family honor, which was a significant aspect of 16th - century social life.

I think 'Ethan Frome' could be considered one of her best. It's a short but powerful novel that tells a tragic story of a man trapped in a loveless marriage in a harsh rural setting. Wharton's use of the New England winter landscape as a backdrop adds to the sense of desolation and the characters' hopelessness. It shows her ability to create a deeply affecting narrative with relatively few words.

Many consider 'The Age of Innocence' to be one of her best novels. It beautifully portrays the upper - class society in New York during the Gilded Age. The story is filled with complex characters, such as Newland Archer, who is caught between his love for Ellen Olenska and the rigid social norms of his class. Wharton's detailed descriptions of the social mores and the inner turmoil of the characters make this novel a classic.
