Samenvatting

The Reef, published in 1912, is a novel by Edith Wharton. The story follows American diplomat George Darrow as he reconnects with his former love, the widowed Anna Leath, with the hope of resuming their romance. Their renewed closeness is later complicated by a brief affair involving Sophy Viner, whose position in Anna’s household and relationships create new tensions among those around her. Set in Paris and in rural France, the novel examines how concealed feelings, jealousy, and desire can upset long-standing relationships and shape the uncertain course of everyone involved.
