Publisher's Notes
First Line: "I had the story, bit by bit, from various people, and, as generally happens in such cases, each time it was a different story."

Industry Reviews
"The utter pessimisn of 'Ethan Frome'... is too bad to be true; it is Hardyesque self-indulgence..."
Spectator - Anthony Burgess (12/03/1965)

"The book to the making of which I brought the greatest joy, and the fullest ease, was 'Ethan Frome'. For years I had wanted to draw life as it really was in the derelict mountain village of New England, a life... utterly unlike that seen through the rose-colored spectacles of my predecessors, Mary Wilkins and Sarah Orne Jewett... 'Ethan Frome' was written after I had spent ten years in the hill-region where the scene is laid, during which years I had come to know well the aspect, dialect, and mental and moral attitudes of the hill-people."
Introduction - Edith Wharton

"The wonder is that the spectacle of so much pain can be made to yield so much beauty."
(10/26/1911)
