Ethan Frome is not a tragedy. The only thing you could say is a tragedy is that Ethan ends up living a horrible life and suffering the whole time. This novel is not a tragedy because a tragedy must contain a tragic hero, and this novel does not. Ethan is not a tragic hero, he doesn't learn from his mistakes, and he doesnt even take action. He wimps out and tries to kill himself. Some say that was taking action, but it was the easy way out. Ethan Frome is not a tragedy, it is just a cruel book that tells the tale of 3 peoples miserable lives.
