La presente edición, Poemas de la inocencia, presenta una concienzuda selección de los procesos líricos de Edith Wharton (1862-1937), conocida especialmente por su novela La edad de la inocencia (1920). Esta edición recoge buena parte de la poco conocida poesía de Wharton, siendo, por tanto, la primera interpretación, traducción y lectura que se vierte al español del poético aliento vital de la autora, en cuya poesía se advierte la pureza de un alma sensible, desnuda y desprovista de oropeles académicos, cualidades que reivindican una mirada reaccionaria hacia su mundo y su época, desde un enfoque muy diáfano que hace de la inocencia el pilar central de una poesía que evoca dioses y diosas griegos, recorre buena parte de la historia del arte, nos sumerge en paisajes de ensueño, reviviendo con frecuencia amores rotos y amores idílicos, así como reconociendo las grandezas y miserias de su mundo. Estamos ante una poesía norteamericana de fin de siècle y de entreguerras que, de una parte, presagia la decadencia del héroe americano y, de otra, anticipa un modernismo poético con Europa como telón de fondo y marco de inspiración.
