📌 ONE QUESTION FROM THE BOOK
How far can we dream of freedom when trapped within the heavy boundaries of our fate?
📝ONGO's Reflection
Opening this tragic love story set against a desolate winter landscape, I feel as though a cold gust of snow brushes my cheek. As Ethan Frome, weighed down by the heavy burden of duty and obligation, reaches out toward a fleeting glimmer of hope, my heart aches. This novel is not simply a story of a love that cannot be. It depicts, with astonishing dryness and beauty, how human longing freezes and breaks apart under the harsh conditions of life.
