Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is set in the wild and beautiful land of Newfoundland, a rugged island off the eastern coast of Canada. It tells the story of a young minister, Arthur Wellon, who arrives in a small fishing village called Peterport in the 1850s. As he becomes acquainted with the people and the harsh realities of their lives, he is drawn into a deep exploration of faith and the human condition. The author weaves a rich tapestry of characters, each with their own unique struggles and aspirations. There is Skipper George Barbury, a strong and resourceful fisherman who grapples with the challenges of his perilous trade and the loss of his young son. There is Mrs. Barre, a mysterious and enigmatic newcomer, who seeks refuge in the village after a tragic past. And there is James Urston, a young man torn between his duty to the priesthood and his forbidden love for Lucy Barbury, Skipper George's daughter. Through the intertwining lives of these characters, the author explores the themes of faith, love, loss, and the search for meaning in a harsh and unforgiving world. The result is a deeply moving and thought-provoking novel that offers a profound insight into the human experience.
