Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Set in a small fishing village in 1890s Maine, the collection draws from Sarah Jewett's personal experiences and her travels with her doctor father. Narrated by a summer resident, the stories depict the tight-knit community's resilience amidst economic decline. The title story, first published in 1886, follows a writer seeking solitude in a remote seaport, where she finds a vibrant community despite its challenges. The sketches capture the essence of rural life and the bonds that hold the townspeople together.
