Author and editor Jason Diamond (@ImJasonDiamond) joins us to discuss one of the most strikingly modern books of the 1920s, set in the 1870s: Edith Wharton's THE AGE OF INNOCENCE. Deserving of a modern critique on the blissful happiness and absolute despair of New York's Gilded Age, we discuss ostentatious wealth, literary anti-Semitism, and just how badly we miss going to parties.
