Well, that was bleak. This novel is slight so I'm not surprised it's the Wharton usually taught in high school but it also may have the effect of scaring high schoolers away from Wharton. Don't get me wrong, this book was good. Wharton is amazing. But, it is the tale of a man whose life is basically mired in misery due to hasty choices, crippling poverty, and impossible passions.

Edith Wharton really said I’m gonna write books in which nobody is gonna be happy.
That being said she’s such a damned good writer. I’m glad I never had to read this in high school because I don’t feel like I could’ve appreciated it as much. Wharton just had a wonderful way with words that gives depth and beauty to her works while still making them approachable and easy to read.
Love you girl!!
