For nearly a hundred years, Edith Wharton’s Ethan Frome has been considered one of the great works of American literature, a book that nearly everyone has heard of, if not required to read in school. Ethan Frome: Analysis in Context is a contextual close reading of Wharton’s classic novel, a unique approach that brings together a wealth of research and literary criticism to look at the story in an entirely new light. There isn’t another book like it—about any novel. The book analyzes not only the entirety of the novel in detail but also two other stories by Wharton’s contemporaries that will guide educators and general readers to a more thorough understanding of a beloved classic in a way they had never imagined.
