Ethan Frome by American author Edith Wharton is a 1911 novel with a framed narrative. The framing story concerns an unnamed male narrator spending a winter in Starkfield while in the area on business. He spots a limping, quiet man around the village, who is somehow compelling in his demeanor and carriage. Ethan Frome is described by the narrator as "the most striking figure in Starkfield", "the ruin of a man" with a "careless powerful look ... despite a lameness checking each step like the jerk of a chain".
