This charming novel, set on a southwestern Maine island amid the salt marshes, focuses on the conflict between two young suitors—one from the city and one from the country—who fall in love with the same farmer’s daughter. A pleasant romance, A Marsh Island is also brimming with evocative descriptions of the landscape’s rugged beauty, for which Jewett is renowned.

A propos de l’auteur
Sarah Orne Jewett (1849–1909) was an American novelist and author of children’s books. Raised in Maine, she spent much of her life there, depicting the people and places of New England. She was one of the first American writers to elevate setting and characterization over plot. Her work has influenced feminist authors such as Willa Cather, Kate Chopin, and Mary Wilkins Freeman.
