Set in a the fictional New England town of Starkfield, a narrator tells the story of his encounter with Ethan Frome, a man with dreams and desires that end in anironicturn of events. The narrator tells the story based on an account from observations at Frome's house when he had to stay there during a winter storm.

"The New York Times"calledEthan Frome"a compelling and haunting story."Edith Wharton was able to write an appealing book and separate it from her other works, where her characters in Ethan Frome are not of the elite upper class. However, the problems that the characters endure are still consistently the same, where the protagonist has to decide whether or not to fulfill their duty or follow their heart. Some critics have read the novel as a veiled autobiography where they have interpreted the likeness between Ethan's situation with his wife in the novel to Wharton's unhappy marriage."
