Dear me, this was not very cheery AT ALL. It's apparently Edith Wharton's most widely read book, but I wonder if that is more because it is very short, than because the story is particularly compelling.

And off it goes to the winner of the classics sweeps. Happy reading!
Thank you for this classic. I look forward to reading it.
Definitely not cheery, but the tension is gripping. A good read for me.
This classic is going to the winner of the Classics Sweepstakes. Congratulations and enjoy!
Haha, this book started its journey about a mile away from my house, went to Canada, and then travelled all the way back across the ocean again :-).
Thanks very much mcsar. It sounds like an intense read!

My word, that was grim. I don't think it's much of a spoiler to say there is no happy ending here.
But the writing is very evocative, and it has an interesting plot structure.
