Book Description
Deeply moving study of the tyrannical and rigid requirements of New York high society in the late 19th century and the effect of those strictures on the lives of three people. Vividly characterized drama of affection thwarted by a man’s sense of honor, family, and societal pressures. A long-time favorite with readers and critics alike.

I love this book. I read it four years ago, and now I'm onto it again. I wish there was a "rereading" option.
I read this for a Modern Lit course in College. I really really liked this book. It had a real twisted story and some sexual bits... which of course makes for an excellent read. Tie that in with some family frustrations and a little death and its fabulous. I think I will reread this one day.
I chose this for a book club, but because I love movies, I saw the movie before finishing the book. I don't want to finish the book because the main character annoys me now. I might possibly suffer through it for the sake of the book club. I liked Ethan Frome a lot more.
