Ethan Frome

A marked contrast to the mordantly satirical novels of manners set among New York high society for which she is best known, this story set in rural Massachusetts is considered by many to be Edith Wharton's highest achievement, and is unsurpassed as a study of forbidden love and thwarted desire. Here presented in a new annotated edition.

Un contrast marcat cu romanele mordant satirice despre maniere plasate in inalta societate din New York pentru care ea este cel mai bine cunoscuta, aceasta poveste plasata in ruralul Massachusetts este considerata de multi drept cea mai mare realizare a lui Edith Wharton si este de neintrecut ca un studiu al iubirii interzise si dorinta zadarnicita.
