About This Item
FlatIron Books, 2021. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. As New/New. Dermot Conlan DJ photo; B&W genealogy chart. CONDITION: WHAT MAKES THIS BOOK "AS NEW?" - Small black remainder dot top edges at spine. UNREAD 2021 FlatIron Books hardcover (blue boards) & dust jacket, first edition, first printing. Beautiful DJ photo by Dermot Conlan. CONTENT: Frozen in grief after the loss of her son at sea, Edith Baines stares across the water at a schooner, under full sail yet motionless in the winter wind and surging tide of the Northern Reach. Edith seems to be hallucinating. Or is she? Edith's boat-watch opens The Northern Reach, set in the coastal town of Wellbridge, Maine, where townspeople squeeze a living from the perilous bay or scrape by on the largesse of the summer folk and whatever they can cobble together, salvage, or grab. At the center of town life is the Baines family, land-rich, cash-poor descendants of town founders, along with the ne'er-do-well Moody clan, the Martins of Skunk Pond, and the dirt farming, bootlegging Edgecombs. Over the course of the twentieth century, the families intersect, interact, and intermarry, grappling with secrets and prejudices that span generations, opening new wounds and reckoning with old ghosts.
