    About this audiobook

    Sarah Orne Jewett is best known for her clean and clear descriptive powers that at once elevate common-place daily events to something remarkable, and lend dignity and grace to the most humble and homely human character.

    In Deephaven, go with her on vacation to an unforgettable sea side village where time runs slower and small pleasures are intensified. Much space is given to outdoor rambles and sights and events of daily living that draw you into another era. Jewett's loving and gentle descriptions of the people and life of Deephaven will make you sorry when the book is over, and long to be able to find that village for yourself. (Summary by Brenda Price)

    Sarah Orne Jewett

    Sarah Orne Jewett (1849–1909) was an American novelist, short story writer, and poet. As a young adult, Jewett published short stories and vignettes about countryside and seaport life in numerous magazines. She wrote three novels, but is best known for her collection of vignettes The Country of Pointed Firs. Jewett’s career was cut short by a carriage accident and a series of strokes, but her sympathetic works continue to inspire naturalist writers.
