Even if I had cared nothing for the plot, I would still have been compelled to keep on reading simply for the joy of reading her wonderfully crafted prose. Her descriptions and turns of phrase are musical! This novel certainly deserved the Pulitzer Prize, and has made me want to read more of her work.

I wish we could have spent some time with the two leading women, Ellen & May, rather than just with the feckless Newland Archer. Still, it's an absorbing story, and well told.

The book is so much better than the movie!
