    $a While she might be best known as the author of \'The Age of Innocence\' (adapted for film, and starring Michelle Pfeiffer, and Daniel Day-Lewis), Edith Wharton wrote an extensive range of novels, journals, and poetry. Containing 24 poems, \'Artemis to Actaeon\' muses on the themes of life, love, death, and the passing of time, with a few well-chosen words set aside for her beloved France. As the title suggests, there is plenty of classical inspiration as Wharton draws on ancient legends surrounding mythical figures, such as Orpheus, and Actaeon. Her writing is lyrical and has a yearning quality to it, particularly in poems such as \'All Souls,\' and \'Vesalius in Zarate.\' A superb collection for those familiar with Wharton\'s work, and those new to her. $c ereading
