Ethan Frome by Edith Wharton

I needed an 'E' book for my alphabet challenge and Terry said this was a good one.  I had passed it by over the years, so now was a good time to see what it was about.  It is truly a book set in New England, the characters demeanor and stalwartness rang true through the whole story.  Ethan Frome did not have an easy life and things that he cared about and wanted to do had to be set aside, he was not dealt the best hand and it was such a twist of fate in the end you felt sorry for the guy.
