Silence, solitude, delusion, and the negative effects of adhering to social norms are some of the major themes of Ethan Frome. Wharton uses personal stories to illustrate her conceptual points. From the summary we can find out the passage questions.

The events of Ethan Frome take place against the backdrop of a New England winter's bitter cold, gloom, and desolation. Ethan Frome is a reclusive farmer struggling to make ends meet while caring for his cold, demanding, and unappreciative wife, Zeena.

When Mattie, the cousin of Ethan's wife, shows up to help, a glimmer of hope breaks into his life of despair. As he falls in love with Mattie, his life is forever changed, but their future is doomed by the oppressive traditions of the time.

Ethan Frome by Edith Wharton is a classic work of American literature that features likeable characters who are caught in situations from which it seems impossible for them to get out.

The accident in the novel is probably based on a true event that took place in Lenox, Massachusetts in 1904 where five children got killed while crashed into a lamppost when sliding down Courthouse Hill.
