mistergenest 's review for:

The House of Mirth by Edith Wharton
5.0

"On and on it flowed, a current of meaningless sound, on which, startlingly enough, a familiar name now and then floated to the surface."
Loved this book, especially the dialogue. I got a little bored and skipped pp. 190 - 242 at one point when I lost track of some of the characters. If you get a little lost in the characters, Wikipedia has an excellent plot summary as a crutch. Don't speed through the final chapters too quickly, I think they merits some savoring.
