<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">novelist wharton</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for edith that I've seen before include "and 19 Across: 'Little Sparrow'" , "- - Piaf, singer" , "Dame ----- Evans (1888-1976), stage and screen actress" , "- Cavell, WW 1 heroine" , "Eg Cavell" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
