Edith Wharton Quotes
I Went On Steadily Trying To 'find Out How To'; But I Wrote Two Or Three Novels Without Feeling That I Had Made Much Progress. It Was Not Until I Wrote "Ethan Frome" That I Suddenly Felt The Artisan's Full Control Of His Implements. When "Ethan Frome" First Appeared I Was Severely Criticized By The Reviewers For What Was Considered The Clumsy Structure Of The Tale. I Had Pondered Long On This Structure, Had Felt Its Peculiar Difficulties, And Possible Awkwardness, But Could Think Of No Alternative Which Would Serve As Well In The Given Case: And Though I Am Far From Thinking "Ethan Frome" My Best Novel, And Am Bored And Even Exasperated When I Am Told That It Is, I Am Still Sure That Its Structure Is Not Its Weak Point.
