Deephaven and Selected Stories & Sketches
In her nuanced and sharply etched novels and short stories, Sarah Orne Jewett captured the inner-life and hidden emotional drama of outwardly quiet New England coastal towns. Set against the background of long Maine winters, hardscrabble farms, and the sea, her stories of independent, capable women struggling to find fulfillment in their lives and work have a surprisingly modern resonance. The author drew inspiration from her birthplace for the characters and surroundings of her domestic fiction. This collection, Deephaven and Selected Stories and Sketches, contains the novel Deephaven as well as five additional stories including An Autumn Holiday, From a Mournful Villager, and Tom's Husband.
