About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Custom of the Country by Edith Wharton, read by LibriVox Volunteers. Edith Wharton was a novelist of manners of late 19th Century New York "Society", who spent much of her life in France. In this novel she tells the story of Undine Sprague, the thrice- (or more) married, upwardly mobile beauty from "Apex City", transplanted to New York, and finally to France, leaving the dead and wounded in the wake of her "experiments in happiness".
