Plot Synopsis
Sickly Zeena Frome's cousin Mattie comes to help her husband Ethan with the housework, but when an attraction develops between Ethan and Mattie, Zeena threatens to send Mattie away in favor of hiring a paid housekeeper. Turmoil stirs between Mattie and Ethan as they realize they might not be able to remain together.Critical Reception
"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."—Powell Books-
