It could have been written by Edith Wharton with tragedy of centeral woman characters, well controlled prose and social-psychological insight. It might lack a bit in beautiful phrases but that might be just translation, otherwise fans of Edith Wharton will enjoy seeing Sigrid Undset do to European art class of her time but wharton does to American luxurious class of hers.
