Summary

A young painter visits a small community off the coast of Maine. Besides a complicated romance, we are privy to a young man's inner growth and uncertainty as a budding artist. The author's gift of giving local color to the various family and neighborhood scenes gives a charming backdrop to a tender love story.

As featured on Backlisted podcast

The narration was too fast and resultantly made it a little hard to follow. However once you get an ear to it, the rhythm suited the accents of the characters. Not much happens but that’s part of its charm!
