이디스 워튼의 환상 이야기

Her background in Gothic literature seems evident in the mood and settings. I wonder what inspired her to explore the supernatural in her writing.

The stories feel layered with social anxiety and moral tension. It made me think about how Gothic tales reflect the anxieties of their era.

Some stories felt more personal or atmospheric than others. I’m curious whether Wharton curated these for thematic reasons or personal preference.
