Reviews

[Babs M · Rating 4 out of 5]

She has such a wonderful way of talking about nature.

[Beth Stephenson · Rating 3 out of 5]

The writing style is engaging and intelligent but sorely lacking in conflict and general plot structure.

[Nat Newman · Rating 3 out of 5]

I found this collection a struggle, which is a shame because I normally find her stories quite enjoyable

[Sem · Rating 3 out of 5]

Not her best collection but there are a few very good stories.

[Cathy Simonds · Rating 4 out of 5]

More Jewett stories from Maine. Again, nothing spectacular, just enjoyable short stories.
