The women's sensation novel of the 1860's and the New Woman fiction of the 1890's were two major examples of a perceived feminine invasion of fiction which caused a critical furor in their day.

Starting with the tensions in the early family constellation, Gloria C. Erlich traces Edith Wharton's erotic evolution--from her early repression of sexuality and her celibate marriage to her discovery of passion in a rapturous midlife love affair with the bisexual Morton Fullerton.
