In Thornton Wilder's final work, Theophilus North, the story follows a young man in 1926 whose quest for adventure leads him to Newport, Rhode Island, where a car breakdown forces him to take up various jobs in the opulent mansions of Ocean Drive. Narrated by an elderly North reflecting on his past, the novel weaves together themes of youth, education, and the complexities of life as he navigates a web of relationships and experiences. This edition includes an insightful afterword from Wilder’s nephew, Tappan Wilder, providing additional context about the author and his inspirations.
