| 1 | Ethan Frome (Adaptation): Oxford Bookwor | Edith Wharton & Jennifer Bassett (adaptation) |
| Life is always hard for the poor, in any place and at any time. Ethan Frome is a farmer in Massachusetts. He works long hours every day, but his farm makes very little money. His wife, Zeena, is a thin, grey woman, always complaining, and only interested in her own ill health. Then Mattie Silver, a young cousin, comes to live with the Fromes, to help Zeena and do the housework. Her bright smile and laughing voice bring light and hope into the Fromes’ house - and into Ethan’s lonely life. But poverty is a prison from which few people escape.... An Oxford Bookworms Library reader for learners of English, adapted from the Edith Wharton original by Susan Kingsley. |
