Hardback. Zustand: Good. From the author of the international bestseller "The Headmaster's Wife" and other novels comes a collection of essays written during the Covid-19 pandemic while the author sheltered in place in his tiny Vermont town.

Childhood memories and stories of family life are intertwined, and what the reader gains is a sense of community, family, and belonging. These stories may be tiny, but they show how grand the human capacity for love, and how that love is greater than the ills that befall us. In "Notes from the Porch" we see Greene's capacity for true storytelling at its finest, and it is a great gift to us all. …
