ATL Reads Book Discussion- The Age of Innocence (In-Person)

Step into the glittering world of Old New York—where appearances rule, secrets smolder beneath silk and lace, and love is the most dangerous rebellion of all. In The Age of Innocence, Pulitzer Prize–winning author Edith Wharton paints a stunning portrait of desire and duty in the Gilded Age. Follow young lawyer Newland Archer as he prepares to marry the proper May Welland—until the arrival of her cousin, the daring Countess Ellen Olenska, upends his tidy world.

Join us as we explore this elegant and emotional tale of passion, betrayal, and the invisible chains of society. Perfect for readers who enjoy classic literature, sharp social commentary, and timeless love stories that still spark conversation today.

All are welcome to join the discussion, but please register as space is limited.
