MOTHER'S RECOMPENSE, THE

di Edith Wharton (Autore)

Tracy Peace, 2026

In this powerful late novel by Pulitzer Prize–winning author Edith Wharton, a woman returns to the world she once abandoned—and must face the consequences of a past she cannot escape. Kate Clephane left her husband and daughter years ago in pursuit of passion and freedom, only to find herself isolated and forgotten by the society she once knew. When she finally returns to America, she hopes to rebuild her life and reconnect with her grown daughter, Anne. But her second chance at happiness becomes dangerously complicated when she forms an unexpected bond with the very man her daughter loves. Set against the refined yet unforgiving world of upper-class society, The Mother’s Recompense explores guilt, desire, social judgment, and the cost of personal choices. Edith Wharton delivers a deeply psychological and emotionally charged story about motherhood, sacrifice, and the search for redemption in a world ruled by appearances. This audiobook narration by Tracy Peace brings new depth to Wharton’s elegant prose, capturing the tension, restraint, and quiet tragedy that define one of her most thought-provoking works. Perfect for listeners who enjoy classic literature, women’s fiction, and character-driven drama, this timeless novel remains as compelling today as when it was first published in 1925.
