Really enjoyed her analysis of Zeena! Of course, there were conclusions in this book that I did not agree with, but it gave a cohesive view of how Wharton's novel has been perceived since its publication and I loved the insights Springer had regarding the symbolism of the story. All Ethan Frome fans should read this! It's definitely worth your time.

For a review, I have to give it a full star. Expletive.
