Wharton’s novel, first published in 1913, is described as “a scathing story of ambition that follows Undine Spragg, a Midwestern girl who attempts to ascend in New York City society.” Oscar-winning screenwriter Coppola says of the book: "Undine Spragg is my favorite literary anti-heroine and I’m excited to bring her to the screen for the first time."
