Don't read this if you want to avoid knowing the ending of House of Mirth by Edith Wharton!
A new letter by Wharton bolsters the case that Lily Bart actually did commit suicide at the end of the novel. Read about it here.
Well duh! We had this discussion at my book group.
Saying Lily Bart didn't commit suicide is like watching the movie Thelma & Louise and saying at the end, "Well, the car could have landed, and they could have just driven off. We don't really know what happens at the end."
Right!
