Query: Edith Wharton is a master of prose

Every sentence is finely crafted; every word carefully chosen. If I lived to be a thousand I could never capture Wharton's knack for turning a phrase. As for the book, it is captivating, intruiging, and in the end vastly satisfying. I think the book could have stood on its own without the last chapter, but it offers a resolution for people like me who want a 'happy' ending.I don't know what this world would be like without Dover Thrift Editions. I probably never would have read this book if I hadn't gotten it for $2.
