As she unfolds the story of Undine Spragg, from New York to Europe, Wharton affords us a detailed glimpse of what might be called the interior décor of this America and its nouveau riche fringes. Through a heroine who is as vain, spoiled, and selfish as she is irresistibly fascinating, and through a most intricate and satisfying plot that follows Undine's marriages and affairs, she conveys a vision of social behavior that is both supremely informed and supremely disenchanted.","brand":"Penguin Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51942025691367,"sku":"9780143137214","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0449\/4075\/5096\/files\/imageloader_cfc6cd72-99c2-4614-97ad-36c2d29c8b5e.jpg?v=1775243852","url":"https:\/\/arvidabookco.com\/products\/the-custom-of-the-country-penguin-classics-deluxe-edition","provider":"Arvida Book Co.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
