Without Wharton's not-so-happy marriage, her writing would not have been what it is today, so realistic and a way of changing one's point of view. Throughout her childhood, she lived mainly abroad and mainly in Italy and France. She was born in New York to a wealthy family, and in recent years her hasty marriage took place. Various critics claim that much of his writing comes from his own experience. Many will dispute that she was a remarkable novelist. Wharton was an inspiring writer, in my opinion, her writing seems so realistic. As she was going through a difficult time, writing seemed to be her only outlet and I can somewhat understand that because my uncle passed away a few months ago and that made me depressed at times and to get away from it, I started writing draw. I can say now that I am better at this. For my original piece, I will write a diary about Wharton's love life, from her canceled engagement to her love story, from her perspective. Wharton's disastrous love stories would have been completely different if her marriage hadn't encountered problems. Edith was born Edith Newbold Jones on January 24, 1862, in New York. Over the years, his family moved to Rome. In their eyes “...it was cheaper to live in Europe despite the proximity to Parisian shops.” (Coolidge, 25 years old). Another reason the family moved was that Edith's father no longer had a job in New York. Her father appreciated all the luxurious scenery there was, so when they returned to New York, they made sure they could go to Paris every year during the winter. Edith discovered a passion for reading poetry as she grew up: "As no one read to her, she passionately desired to read it down to the middle of a paper... which influenced her to live there- down when she grew up. Her relationship experiences had their ups and downs, but I think that's what made her writing so beautiful and truly realistic. Over time, critics disagreed about his work. Some say she was a wonderful writer, others say she only wrote about her experiences and could have done something more. To me, she was truly an amazing author; much of his writing was incredibly enjoyable. It puts you in perspective to make you think about your own life. Finally, the original piece contains a diary of Wharton's personal love life from her own perspective. All this proves how his written work came to be. Works Cited Howe, Irving.
