The protagonist, Ethan Frome, is a man tormented by a passionate love for his ailing wife’s young cousin. Trapped by the bonds of marriage and the fear of public condemnation, he is ultimately destroyed by that which offers him the greatest chance at happiness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWHY WE PICKED IT\u003cbr\u003eLike The House of Mirth and many of Edith Wharton’s other novels, Ethan Frome centers on the power of local convention to smother the growth of the individual. Written with stark simplicity, this powerful and tragic novel has long been considered one of Wharton’s greatest works.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDETAILS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Author: Edith Wharton\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Publisher: Signet Classics\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Publication Date: June 2, 2009\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Format: Paperback\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• ISBN\/EAN: 9780451531315\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Ships direct from distributor in 3 to 7 business days\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cedar Leaf Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45155058286636,"sku":"9780451531315","price":7.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0697\/2234\/1420\/files\/9780451531315.jpg?v=1767048337","url":"https:\/\/cedarleafbooks.com\/products\/ethan-frome-signet-classics","provider":"Cedar Leaf Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
