It was also the first of her many stories describing life in old New York.＜/p＞ ＜p＞"The Touchstone" shows off the skills Wharton became famous for in novels such as "Ethan Frome" and "House of Mirth", particularly her piercing and delicious talent for satiric observation. But despite its masterly control, this startlingly modern tale is also a simmering, rebel cri de coeur unleashed by a writer who was herself unappreciated in her own time. The combination of these attributes make this edgy novella amoving and suspenseful homage to the power of literature itself.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The basic requirements of the novella form are that it should be short, concentrated, centred on a single theme, with few characters, and tightly focused in terms of time scale, characters, and location.
