3.0 out of 5 stars
Sentimental Old New York,
By
This review is from: House of Mirth,the (Mass Market Paperback)
This is a very well written novel of manners set in New York at the turn of the century. It is clear that the author is throughly familiar with her subject. However, since we have turned another century, the plot and characters are perhaps too predictable for 21st century tastes. But if you like Jane Austen types, this may be worth a quick read.
