SynopsisSet against the frozen waste of a harsh New England winter, Edith Wharton's Ethan Frome is a tale of despair, forbidden emotions, and sexual tensions, published with an introduction and notes by Elizabeth Ammons in Penguin Classics. Ethan Frome works his unproductive farm and struggles to maintain a bearable existence with his difficult, suspicious, and hypochondriac wife, Zeenie. But when Zeenie's vivacious cousin enters their household as a 'hired girl', Ethan finds himself obsessed with her and with the possibilities for happiness she comes to represent. In one of American fiction's finest and most intense narratives, Edith Wharton moves this ill-starred trio toward their tragic destinies. Different in both tone and theme from Wharton's other works, Ethan Frome has become perhaps her most enduring and most widely read novel. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.

EVEN RICH WOMEN HAD NO RIGHTS AT ALL WHEN THIS BOOK WAS WRITTEN... BY A WOMAN.
Edith Wharton was brought up in privilege and wealth. However you have to remember. back then women had absolutely no rights whatsoever, Even rich women. They were educated in the running a huge household, language, and fashion. However, Edith was able to write a tragic love story with the characters being very very poor people. So Edith was very intelligent and observant. her personal life was a tragedy with divorce which was rare in those days and mental illness.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
