A tourist stumbled upon one grieving woman during his morning strolls along the hilly tracks of Darjeeling. The woman seemed to be a hermit draped in saffron as she was inconsolable in the backdrop of persistent rain and chilly weather with thick fog engulfing the entire Himalayan range. The tourist inquired about the cause of her distress, to which, after moments of silence, the woman narrated a story that transfixed the tourist with sheer wonder leaving him in a state of hallucination where religion or the less of it along with respect, love, and faith created a rich tapestry of mythical proportion. It left him, soul-searching for the elusive truth of our own life and existence. What was that narrative that left the tourist speechless??

The Age of Innocence is a 1920 novel by American author Edith Wharton. It was her twelfth novel, and was initially serialized in 1920 in four parts, in the magazine Pictorial Review. Later that year, it was released as a book by D. Appleton & Company. It won the 1921 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, making Wharton the first woman to win the prize. Though the committee had initially agreed to give the award to Sinclair Lewis for Main Street, the judges, in rejecting his book on political grounds, "established Wharton as the American 'First Lady of Letters'". The story is set in the 1870s, in upper-class, Gilded Age New York City. Wharton wrote the book in her 50s, after she had established herself as a strong author, with publishers clamoring for her work.Show book

Wells in 1897. - The story tells of a shop owner, named Mr. Cave, who finds a strange crystal egg that serves as a window into the planet Mars. - The story was written the same year in which Wells was serializing "The War of the Worlds" in Pearson's Magazine, a year before it was published as a novel.
