 note = {40017377553, Both of Wharton’s “The Old Maid”(1924) and The Mother’s Recompense (1925) have the same theme of the relationship between motherhood and female’s sexuality. 　Twilight Sleep (1927), published two years later The Mother’s Recompense, adds another theme to it.　 It also focuses on an icon of family’s identity,especially mother and daughter. 　Therefore, as seen in Lewis’s comments, this novel might be “the most plotted of Edith Wharton’s novels.” 　While Wolff is critical to it as “Twilight Sleep is chaotically plotted,” she analyzes it as “some of this anarchy is undoubtedly intended as a reflection of the disjointed quality of life in postwar America.” 　In this novel Wharton proposes a problematic theme of the relationship between motherhood and female’s identity that has been developed in the times of Taylorism and Fordism after the First World War in America. 　Even now in 21st century, in which descendants of Pauline, Nona and Lita live, the concept of motherhood related to female’s identity should be deliberated in the aspects of changing world. 　Wharton’s Twilight Sleep is full of suggestions and insights into modern female’s identity.
