Ethan Frome
The Destruction of Life
(The Unforbidden Love Affair)
This tragic book tells a story of yet another forbidden pair of lovers, but separates itself from other stories such as these with
its vivid imagery. The setting of the book and the characters
themselves share the same traits – sullen, silent, somewhat cold and unfriendly. Edith Wharton uses these images to portray each
character, each setting, and each situation with an air of the
tragedy
