Famous first and last lines

I had the story, bit by bit, from various people, and, as generally happens in such cases, each time it was a different story. That’s the first line from Ethan Frome written by Edith Wharton born January 24 1862 in new York city, and died august 11 1937 in France. Edith Wharton was a Pulitzer Prize-winning American novelist, short story writer, and designer. She was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1927, 1928 and 1930. The book Ethan frome is about a man who has a very sick wife, she is mean and ungrateful and makes his life miserable, her cousin comes to live with them to help out and Ethan and her end up falling in love, it sounds like a book that I would like so maybe I will read it sometime. My last line was are there any questions? Written by Margaret Atwood, born in November 18 1939 Ottawa Canada, the book is about a talented artist that goes searching for her missing father, I think I would like the book because it is a mystery thriller, and I like books that keep leading me and keep me in suspense
