I just finished reading Edith Wharton’s Ethan Frome for the second time. I thought it was the most haunting, romantic thing, just as I did nearly fifty years ago. Is that why I’m so drawn to New England, or to small towns? Or was it spending some summer time in Williamstown, MA that turned me in that direction?
Did you know it was dramatized on Broadway in 1936, with three of the greatest stars: Pauline Lord, Ruth Gordon & Raymond Massey?
I’ll go to the Library for the Performing Arts and read the Owen Davis typescript.
