I got a request for answers to this questions and I loved pondering options. After much debate and an honoerable mention to Gone With the Wind I say:
Every time I read the Age of Innocence by Edith Wharton I hope it will end differently. I want Newland Archer to go up to Ellen Olenska’s apartment, take her in his arms and for the passionate ending they (and I) have desired to finally come to fruition, but it never does and I end up crying so hard I can’t see the page this heartbreak is written on. The stains of repeated tears on my copy of this classic remind me every time that romance is about more then a happy ending.
