Description

Ethan Frome: A Comprehensive Study Guide This authoritative text provides a detailed exploration of Edith Wharton's novella, Ethan Frome. The book includes a rich selection of materials, such as previously unavailable correspondence and biographical accounts, to help students understand the social, psychological, and economic issues that underpin the work. The study guide is arranged into three sections: Criticism, Contemporary Reviews, and Modern Criticism. The Criticism section examines Ethan Frome's impact on both its literary merit and its role as a social commentary. In contrast, Contemporary Reviews offers eight prominent assessments of the novella from leading critics, while Modern Criticism features seven interpretations by notable scholars. For those seeking to deepen their understanding of this important work, this study guide provides a valuable resource with a Chronology and Selected Bibliography.
