Description
The Country of the Pointed Firs is a novel written by Sarah Orne Jewett. The book is set in a small coastal town in Maine and follows the narrator, a writer who is visiting the town for the summer, as she meets and interacts with the locals. The book is a collection of interconnected stories and vignettes that explore the lives of the town's inhabitants and their relationships with each other and the natural world around them. The book is known for its vivid descriptions of the Maine landscape and its portrayal of the simple, yet rich, lives of the people who live there. It is considered a classic of American literature and a seminal work of regionalism.GAFFETT WITH HIS good bunk and the bird-skins, the story of the wreck of the Minerva, the human-shaped creatures of fog and cobweb, the great words of Milton with which he described their onslaught upon the crew, all this moving tale had such an air of truth that I could not argue with Captain Littlepage. The old man looked away from the map as if it had vaguely troubled him, and regarded me appealingly.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
