Ethan Frome is a novel published in 1911 by the Pulitzer Prize-winning American author Edith Wharton. It is set in the fictitious town of Starkfield, Massachusetts.
The novel was adapted into a film Ethan Frome in 1993. Ethan’s character is one that becomes a full circle, moving from silent desire to action to quiet submission, ordered by life’s circumstances. The novel is all the more remarkable for its forbidden impressions of the rural working class in New England, especially given that its author was a woman of leisure.
The name of the small Massachusetts town represents a bleak, cold and dismal environment.
