These eleven finely wrought pieces showcase her mastery of the traditional New England ghost story and her fascination with spirits, hauntings, and other supernatural phenomena. Called \"flawlessly eerie\" by Ms. magazine, this collection includes \"Pomegranate Seed,\" \"The Eyes,\" \"All Souls',\" \"The Looking Glass,\" and \"The Triumph of Night.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEdith Wharton\u003c\/b\u003e was born in 1862 into one of New York's older and richer families and was educated here and abroad.
