With an unfailing eye for folly and pretentiousness, Wharton gives seven wonderful stories of possession and loyalty. This unabridged collection contains some of Edith Wharton's best and most intriguing works of short fiction. "The Daunt Diana" tells about the love of art. "The Moving Finger" explains the motives of a man who asks that the portrait of his deceased wife be altered. "The Debt" is an engaging story about loyalty and men of science. In the famous ghost story, "The Eyes", a man is haunted by his past. In "The Dilettante", a man losses the woman he loves because he doesn't have a past. Perhaps Wharton's best-known short story, "The Other Two" tells of a man who finds himself entertaining two of his wife's previous husbands.
