With an Introduction by Dr Pamela Knights, Department of English
Studies, Durham University. With this intensely moving short novel,
Edith Wharton set out 'to draw life as it really was' in the lonely
villages and desolate farms of the harsh New England mountains.
Through the eyes of a visitor from the city, trapped for a winter
in snowbound Starkfield, readers glimpse the hidden histories of
this austere and beautiful land. Piecing together the story of
monosyllabic Ethan Frome, his grim wife, Zeena, and Mattie Silver,
her charming cousin, Wharton explores psychological
dead-lock:frustration, longing, resentment, passion. First
published in 1911, the novella stunned its public with its
consummate handling of the unfolding drama, and has remained for
many readers the most compelling and subtle of all Wharton's
fiction.
