A new edition of a classic novel with a strong female lead. Howard Frank Mosher is one of the best-loved writers of northern New England. One of his most vivid and memorable characters is Marie Blythe. At the dawn of the twentieth century, a young girl with a felicitous name immigrates to Vermont from French Canada. She grows up confronting the grim realities of life with an indomitable spirit--nursing victims of a tuberculosis epidemic, enduring a miscarriage alone in the wilderness, and coping with the uncertainties of love. In Marie Blythe, Mosher has created a strong-minded, passionate, and truly memorable heroine. This edition features a new introduction by novelist Tom Barbash. Described by the Los Angeles Times as a combination of Ernest Hemingway, Henry David Thoreau, and Jim Harrison, Howard Frank Mosher is the author of Northern Borders, Where the River Flows North, A Stranger in the Kingdom (winner of the New England Book Award for fiction), and other novels and short stories.
