I'm on a short road trip to visit my mother who is (temporarily) in a nursing home and so my reading journey with The House by the Sea begins...

I love May Sarton's journals. Came across them in the library quite by accident during a particularly hard winter when I was living in Canada. This is the journal she kept after moving to Maine. She pays close attention to the details of life and nature that most people overlook, and for readers dealing with grief or depression, reading the kind of writing that slows down to pay attention can be a balm. #homebythesea #rockinmay @Cinfhen

Cinfhen I love your book description ~ beautifully stated 💓 7y
batsy @Cinfhen thank you 💚 7y
ReadingEnvy I just read her poetry for the first time and enjoyed it for similar reasons. 7y
batsy @ReadingEnvy It's wonderful, that quality in her writing. I need to get a poetry collection of hers. 7y

Flying to the fabulous Newburyport Literary Festival near Boston and reading May Sarton's beautifully written memoirs up in the air, looking forward to seeing the sea!
