Characterization of Margaret Wynn

Margaret Wynn belongs to the older generation of the New York high society. She

follows the moral code, in which divorce is an inexcusable social aberration.

She once used to be one of Mrs. Lidcote´s closest friends but stopped all contact

when Mrs. Lidcote got divorced. That she has not changed her attitude can be seen

by the fact that she calls her daughter Charlotte home from Leila Barkley´s dinner

party under specious reasons in order to prohibit any contact between Charlotte and

Mrs. Lidcote.
