The House at Lobster Cove
In The House at Lobster Cove, you will see behind the doors of Kragsyde, the house that sheltered and shaped the mysterious George Nixon Black, and continued to tell his story long after both were gone. Using characters, letters and events from history, Jane Goodrich's first novel is part family saga and part love story, as well as an engaging personal journey for the author.
Although Kragsyde was demolished in 1929, it was later rebuilt, in every detail, by Goodrich and her husband, who did all the work themselves on an island in Maine. This special edition features a letterpress cover and title page, hand-printed on 100% cotton paper at the author's studios at Saturn Press in Maine. Paperback.
After a limited edition of love poems, seven years and experimenting with content and formats, Applewood Books harnessed the power of telling the stories of America’s people, places and events. With an eye for timeless stories of the diverse American experience and a passion to bring together the past and present using modern book-making technology and craftsmanship, Applewood Books enriches lives with a curated and ever-expanding Americana-focused catalog.
