The Other Two is a novella written by the renowned American author, Edith Wharton. The story revolves around the life of Alice Waythorn, a young and beautiful woman who marries a wealthy businessman named Waythorn. However, Alice's past relationships and the presence of her ex-husbands, Haskett and Varick, continue to haunt her and cause trouble in her marriage. As the story unfolds, Waythorn discovers Alice's past relationships and struggles to come to terms with the fact that he is her third husband. He also finds himself caught in a web of deceit and betrayal as he tries to navigate the complicated relationships between his wife and her ex-husbands. Wharton's writing style is characterized by her sharp observations of the upper-class society of the time and her ability to capture the complexities of human relationships. The Other Two is no exception, as it delves into the themes of love, marriage, and social conventions. Overall, The Other Two is a masterful work of fiction that explores the intricacies of human relationships and the challenges that come with marrying into a complicated past. It is a must-read for fans of Edith Wharton's work and anyone interested in exploring the complexities of human relationships.The scene left Waythorn deeply shaken. Shamefacedly, in indirect ways, he had been finding out about Haskett; and all that he had learned was favorable. The little man, in order to be near his daughter, had sold out his share in a profitable business in Utica, and accepted a modest clerkship in a New York manufacturing house. He boarded in a shabby street and had few acquaintances. His passion for Lily filled his life. Waythorn felt that this exploration of Haskett was like groping about with a dark-lantern in his wife's past.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
