In The Age of Desire, we delve into the intricate relationship between renowned author Edith Wharton and her governess-turned-secretary, Anna Bahlmann. When Edith, at 45, embarks on a passionate romance with younger journalist Morton Fullerton, it jeopardizes her marriage and the deep bond with Anna. Set against the backdrop of the Gilded Age, this narrative explores themes of friendship and desire, enriched with real letters and diary entries that reveal the complexities of Wharton's life and times.
