About this audiobook
Among her most popular and terrifying tales are the many masterly ghost stories which she wrote in her early career. "Pomegranate Seed" is a disturbing ghost story in which a man receives a series of eerie letters from his dead first wife.
Edith Wharton
Edith Wharton (1862–1937) was an American novelist—the first woman to win a Pulitzer Prize for her novel The Age of Innocence in 1921—as well as a short story writer, playwright, designer, reporter, and poet. Her other works include Ethan Frome, The House of Mirth, and Roman Fever and Other Stories. Born into one of New York’s elite families, she drew upon her knowledge of upper-class aristocracy to realistically portray the lives and morals of the Gilded Age.
