Yet, the overall mood to Ethan Frome was so bleak that I felt depressed both while I was reading and afterward. As in the other Wharton novels and novellas I’ve read, there was a moral dilemma. It was wonderfully written, with Wharton’s elaborate and realistic descriptions of the setting and thought processes. I’m glad I read it: it gave me a new perspective on Wharton, because it was a different setting, cast of characters, and theme from those I’ve read before. I was a bit disappointed by Edith Wharton’s Ethan Frome.
