"In her elegant, sophisticated prose, Dillard tells a tale of intimacy, loss and extraordinary friendship and maturity against a background of nature in its glorious color and caprice. The Maytrees is an intelligent, exquisite novel." -- The Washington Times

Toby Maytree first sees Lou Bigelow on her bicycle in postwar Provincetown, Massachusetts. Her laughter and loveliness catch his breath. Maytree is a Provincetown native, an educated poet of thirty. As he courts Lou, just out of college, her stillness draws him. Hands-off, he hides his serious wooing, and idly shows her his poems.

In spare, elegant prose, Dillard traces the Maytrees' decades of loving and longing. They live cheaply among the nonconformist artists and writers that the bare tip of Cape Cod attracts. When their son Petie appears, their innocent Bohemian friend Deary helps care for him. But years later it is Deary who causes the town to talk.

In this moving novel, Dillard intimately depicts willed bonds of loyalty, friendship, and abiding love. She presents nature's vastness and nearness. Warm and hopeful, The Maytrees is the surprising capstone of Dillard's original body of work.

Nice looking Shoes
Size: 9, Color: Brown
These shoes are very nice. I never heard of the name Bruno Marc before, but I will say the shoes are extremely comfortable, and they look like similar high end shoes at the fraction off the cost. Very light and durable.

solid dress shoes for the price
Size: 12, Color: Black
solid dress shoes, specially when factoring in price. Fit to my size and work well for rare business dress days at my work. They aren't most comfortable dress shoes ever, but as long as not doing long walks in them, should be fine!
