The Long Run, written by Edith Wharton in 1916, is a novel that examines love, societal expectations, and personal choices through the experiences of Halston Merrick. As he reconnects with his former love, Paulina Trant, at a gathering after many years, Merrick reflects on the paths their lives have taken, filled with regret and compromise.
