Ethan Frome and now Flatland
Since my last post I was able to read "Ethan Frome" by Edith Wharton. What an excellent book! If you have time please read this book. It is extremely sad but very well written. I can now say that I really enjoy reading Edith Wharton.
On the flip side, now that I am done with Ethan Frome, I am next going to tackle "Flatland - A Romance of many dimensions" by Edwin A. Abbott.
Has anyone out there read this classic? What did you think?
What did you think of Ethan Frome? I absolutely loved it.

Hunger turned out to be good
Although "Hunger" by Knut Hamsun was kind of hard to digest early on, I found the book to be very good overall. The ending to me happened abruptly but as it should. I would not know how to end that type of book any other way.
I would recommend this book to a lover of classics.
