Have you ever read a story so powerful you could not forget it? Ethan Frome is one of only a few books I've reread for pleasure. Today, I reflect on what makes it such an incredible story in A Room full of Books & Pencils #writerslife #literature #americannovel #ethanfrome

Suddenly, today is perfect. You know those places that lift your spirit the moment you arrive? are impossibly wondrous or beautiful? you can’t imagine not having in your life? Lake Superior is that place for me. Where is your place? Let’s share a little magic with each other.
