Book excerpt: ‘Bunner Sisters’ explores the lives of the impoverished class in 1870s New York. Sisters Ann Eliza and Evelina run a small shop out of a shabby basement on a side street. Despite their misfortunes, they are happy in their small, supportive community of women. This bubble will soon be burst, however, as Ann Eliza and Evelina are faced with the harsh realities of the world that exists outside of their shop. A considerate exploration of American society, class, and sibling relationships, Edith Wharton’s novel is unmissable if you enjoyed Louisa May Alcott’s ‘Little Women’. Edith Wharton (1863-1937) was an American author. Best known for her sharp, scathing, and fierce stories about the upper-class society into which she was born and its treatment of women, she wrote more than 40 books. Her major works include "The Age of Innocence" (1920), "Ethan Frome" (1911), and "The House of Mirth" (1905). Beyond novels, she wrote authoritative works on architecture, gardens, interior design, and travel. She was the first female author to win the Pulitzer Prize, and her work is unmissable for all fans of classic authors, from Joseph Conrad to Virginia Woolf.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edith Wharton stories are like brightly shining beads on a string, all in contrasting colours. When you read one story, you wish for the heroine to make different choices, to move in another direction, to live better. Then you engage with another girl or woman in the next novel, and you find her brutaly struggling in exactly the situation you wished upon the last novel's main character. I thought I was convinced that New York upper class life was the unhappiest state of mind possible, but of course I hadn't read Bunner Sisters and seen that vanity and folly are really not a privilege of the rich, and that bad choices derive from good intentions all the time, in all environments. The ease with which Edith Wharton moves between countries and social classes and dreams and hopes is astonishing. Susy Lansing and Lily Bart don't differ much from Evelina Bunner in the end. They want love and happiness but face the shallow desires and addictions of the ruthless world instead. In the end, chance decides on the "fate" of the heroine. If your baby is in Catholic heaven, you better make sure to buy a ticket for that ride as well, whether the rituals are meaningful to you or not. Marriage is both epiphany and catastrophe, the main goal of each woman's life and at the same time the end of life as an independent person. Almost a symbolical suicide a priori... And when nothing is left, the world still keeps moving.

Book excerpt: Edith Wharton is best known for writing "The House of Mirth" and the Pulitzer prize winning novel, "The Age of Innocence" -- works that criticized the lifestyle of the upper class. In "Bunner Sisters," however, Wharton writes about the lower middle class, a stark contrast to her previous works. Evelina and Ann Eliza are two spinster sisters living together in a one bedroom apartment. They mend clothes to make money though they run a small shop where they sell bonnets and preserves that they've made themselves. Their lives are ordinary, if not a bit dull. Then Mr. Ramy, the clock maker, enters their lives and it isn't long before Evelina marries him. Right after the wedding day, Mr. Ramy takes Evelina away, leaving Ann Eliza guessing about Evelina's whereabouts. She must delve into Mr. Ramy's past in order to find her sister -- for Evelina may be in too much trouble for her to get out alone.

Ramy's appearance also begins to distancethe sisters from each other, as Ann Eliza notes pathetic signs of flirtation in Evelina. Ann Eliza decides to sacrifice her own hopes and yearnings for those of her younger sister. In spite of Ramy's frequent visits to the Bunner sisters, his background remains shrouded to them; the sisters' naiveté blinds them to Ramy's unexplained absences, from which he returns with ""dull eyes"" and a face the color of ""yellow ashes.""

Book excerpt: In the days when New York's traffic moved at the pace of the drooping horse-car, when society applauded Christine Nilsson at the Academy of Music and basked in the sunsets of the Hudson River School on the walls of the National Academy of Design, an inconspicuous shop with a single show-window was intimately and favourably known to the feminine population of the quarter bordering on Stuyvesant Square. It was a very small shop, in a shabby basement, in a side- street already doomed to decline; and from the miscellaneous display behind the window-pane, and the brevity of the sign surmounting it (merely "Bunner Sisters" in blotchy gold on a black ground) it would have been difficult for the uninitiated to guess the precise nature of the business carried on within. But that was of little consequence, since its fame was so purely local that the customers on whom its existence depended were almost congenitally aware of the exact range of "goods" to be found at Bunner Sisters'.
