THE COUNTRY OF THE POINTED FIRS

A young writer leaves the city to complete her manuscript in a small coastal town but finds herself writing about the lives of its inhabitants instead – their occupation with memory and tradition their vibrant female friendships and the idyll of the landscape that informs their sense of togetherness. A classic of American fiction adored by Willa Cather and Henry James The Country of the Pointed Firs seems woven from the fabric of community itself.
