"Nothing links person to person like the frequent passage from hand to hand of a good book."

This is a really beautiful story that takes place at the beginning of the Great Depression and the start of the rise of labor unions in America. At the heart of the story at Honora and Sexton, a young newly married couple. The story really evokes time, 1929, and place, the location at the beach in New England. Lovely story, as only Anita Shreve can write it.
