Description
Their Wedding Journey is a novel written by William Dean Howells, first published in 1872. The story revolves around the newlywed couple, Kenyon and Ellen, who embark on a honeymoon journey from Boston to Niagara Falls. Along the way, they encounter various characters and situations that challenge their relationship and expose the social and cultural differences between the North and South. The novel is a satire on the American society of the time, particularly its obsession with materialism and superficiality. Howells uses his characters to criticize the shallowness of the upper class and the hypocrisy of the lower class. The novel also explores themes such as love, marriage, gender roles, and the search for identity. Their Wedding Journey is considered one of Howells' most successful works and is a classic of American literature.1871. Howells was an American realist author. He wrote for various magazines including Atlantic Monthly and Harper's Magazine. His career blossomed after the publication of his first realist novel, A Modern Instance. The book begins: They first met in Boston, but the match was made in Europe, where they afterwards saw each other; wither, indeed, he followed her; and there the match was also broken off. Why it was broken off, and why it was renewed after a lapse of years, is part of quite a long love-story, which I do not think myself qualified to rehearse, distrusting my fitness for a sustained or involved narration; though I am persuaded that a skillful romancer could turn the courtship of Basil and Isabel March to excellent account.
