About this book

"The Life of Nancy" by Sarah Orne Jewett is a collection of eleven short stories published in 1895. Set in New England country locales and coastal fishing towns, these tales capture the detailed rhythms of everyday life through the lens of "local color" fiction. Though each story features different characters, a unifying thread connects them: a deep nostalgia for the past and yearning to revive fading traditions. Jewett's compassionate portraits explore small-town life with grace and intimate understanding of her characters' inner worlds.
