Ethan Frome

The best-known and most popular of Edith Wharton's novels, Ethan Frome is widely considered her masterpiece. Set against a bleak New England background, the novel tells of Frome and his ailing wife Zeena and her companion Mattie Silver. Burdened by poverty and spiritually dulled by a loveless marriage to an older woman. Frome is passionately stirred by the arrival of a youthful cousin who is employed as household help. Mattie's presence not only brightens a gloomy house but stirs long-hidden feelings in Ethan. Their growing love for one another, discovered by an resentful wife, foreshadows an ending to this grim tale that is both shocking and savagely ironic. Edith Wharton's Ethan Frome is a classic of American Literature, with compelling characters trapped in circumstances from which they seem unable to escape.
