Considered by some to be her finest work, Edith Wharton’s Summer created a sensation when first published in 1917, as it was one of the first novels to deal honestly with a young woman’s sexual awakening.
Summer is the story of Charity Royall, a child of mountain moonshiners adopted by a family in a poor New England town, who has a passionate love affair with Lucius Harney, an educated man from the city. Wharton broke the conventions of women’s romantic fiction by making Charity a thoroughly independent modern woman—in touch with her emotions and sexuality, yet kept from love and the larger world she craves by the overwhelming pressures of heredity and society.
Praised for its realism and honesty by such writers as Joseph Conrad and Henry James and compared to Flaubert’s Madame Bovary , Summer remains as fresh and powerful a novel today as when it was first written.

讀後感
这是一本难得的读的顺心的让人感到安静的小说，可是读到了最后竟然还以为是一本结局圆满的好故事，结果却是一个女孩的悲剧故事，唉，我这算是没看懂吗？不过这是一本无论如何值得一读的好书。很经典的好故事，一个天真的幻想，一个屌丝女的逆袭。

A woman's awakening
评分Goodreads上麵一個人說得好，Edith Wharton 寫寫她熟知的上層社會故事就好，農民和妓女的還是留給莫泊桑和毛姆這樣瞭解他們的。
评分描寫得相當有文采。結尾像《殺死一隻知更鳥》一樣令人意外。比《傲慢與偏見》深刻。
评分Lots of detailed descriptions which make the book disenchanted to read. The author had depicted a beautiful scenery in 19th century's New England area in the beginning parts of the story. The book, named Summer, ended the whole story in a chilly winter. Charity conceived Harney's baby and got married to his step father. Charity finally grown up.
评分Very delicately written. The heroine remained a whiny character, but through the self discovery adventures readers may truly empathise with her convincing sad ending.
