In "the Age of Innocence" the author, Wharton portraits May Welland as a woman who presents innocence and purity and follows the strict rules of society consistently. In one scene of this book she is shown as a chameleon who does not 'change' her mind but tell the truth and is clear for the first time (in the book). On page 110-111 she presents a strong woman who wants to talk abou the truth "she seemed to grow in womanly stature and dignity" ..... "Or even if it's true: why shouldn't we speak of it"
Do you think that May Welland has a strong character or is she more of a conformist? And what would happen when she finds out that there is something between Archer and her cousin?
