Description

"The year Elizabeth II was crowned Queen of England and Edmund Hillary conquered Mount Everest, I first said I was from Vermont." It's a lie, and Peggy knows it: she's the third daughter in a Midwestern academic family that summers in Vermont. But in Peggy's imagination, she lives on the hill farm across the way, with its rhythms of milking, haying, and working horses. Ten interlocking stories follow Peggy's quest for belonging-to a family, to a time, to a place-as she witnesses the irrevocable change in a Vermont whose mountains are becoming ski areas and whose farms are giving way to villages of second homes. A poignant portrait of a girl who sees the truth she embellishes all too clearly, and who learns that no amount of skill can make her stories of the people she loves turn out the way she wants. "Captivating stories, told with understanding and compassion, yet without a drop of sentimentality." Reeve Lindbergh, author of Under a Wing and No More Words "Elegantly written, ruthlessly honest, very funny, and astonishingly insightful . . . Stevenson writes like an American Jane Austen." Howard Frank Mosher, author of A Stranger in the Kingdom and Northern Borders
