In his review of Hermione Lee’s biography of Edith Wharton, Harry N. Lembeck describes in detail her home in Lenox, Massachusetts, known as The Mount. Lembeck also discusses her relationships with her friend Walter Berry, her lover William Morton Fullerton, and fellow writer Henry James. Lembeck highlights her relationship with Theodore Roosevelt which centered on their mutual love of books and reading, their dislike of Woodrow Wilson, and their desire to see the United States abandon its neutrality and enter the Great War in Europe. Lembeck also highlights some aspects of Wharton’s writing that had been previously ignored.
Seven photographs supplement the text, including five of The Mount. One shows Wharton with two of Roosevelt’s sons, Quentin Roosevelt and Archibald B. Roosevelt. A text box with the mission statement of the Theodore Roosevelt Association also appears in the article.
