Erlich traces Edith Wharton's erotic evolution--from her early repression of sexuality and her celibate marriage to her discovery of passion in a rapturous midlife love affair with the bisexual Morton Fullerton. Analyzing the novelist's life, letters, and fiction, Erlich reveals several interrelated identity systems--the filial, the sexual, and the creative--that evolved together over the course of Wharton's lifetime. 606 $aWomen authors, American$xSexual behavior 606 $aFemininity in literature 606 $aWomen authors, American$xPsychology 606 $aPsychoanalysis and literature 606 $aWomen in literature 606 $aSex in literature 606 $aWomen and literature$xHistory$y20th century$zUnited States 606 $aPsychological fiction, American$xHistory and criticism$y20th century$zUnited States 606 $aAuthors, American$xPsychology 606 $aFemininity in literature 606 $aPsychoanalysis and literature 606 $aWomen in literature 606 $aSex in literature 610 0 $aUnited States 615 0$aWomen authors, American$xSexual behavior. 615 0$aFemininity in literature. 615 0$aWomen authors, American$xPsychology. 615 0$aPsychoanalysis and literature. 615 0$aWomen in literature. 615 0$aSex in literature. 615 0$aWomen and literature$xHistory 615 0$aPsychological fiction, American$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aAuthors, American$xPsychology 615 0$aFemininity in literature 615 0$aPsychoanalysis and literature 615 0$aWomen in literature 615 0$aSex in literature 676 $a813/.52 676 $aB 700 $aErlich$b Gloria C$01232263 801 0$bDLC 801 1$bDLC 801 2$bUKM 801 2$bSLR 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910495882903321 996 $aThe sexual education of Edith Wharton$92861112 997 $aUNINA
