As she unfolds the story of Undine Spragg, from New York to Europe, Wharton affords us a detailed glimpse of what might be called the interior décor of this America and its nouveau riche fringes. Through a heroine who is as vain, spoiled, and selfish as she is irresistibly fascinating, and through a most intricate and satisfying plot that follows Undine’s marriages and affairs, she conveys a vision of social behavior that is both supremely informed and supremely disenchanted.","brand":"Penguin Books Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58453740716367,"sku":"9780143137214","price":26.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0061\/0372\/8217\/files\/9780143137214_1-custom-of-the-country-the.jpg?v=1786478310","url":"https:\/\/www.suomalainen.com\/products\/custom-of-the-country-the-3","provider":"Suomalainen.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
