Brand New Family Saga
Along an elm-canopied
boulevard rising from a quaint Finger
Lakes village stands a
magnificent Queen Anne-style house. In the summer of 1920, when Mame McGrath
and her family move in across the street, she notices a catatonic young man
rocking on its wraparound porch. Mame, a newly hired elementary school teacher,
proclaims boldly that she can, and will, restore this man’s psyche—devastated
by a drowning in Keuka Lake. What she doesn't anticipate is that he and this
house will become the center of her life.
The House With the Wraparound Porch weaves a riveting tale of the four generations to whom this home becomes more than a shelter from life’s storms. It houses their memories of triumphs and failures, of joys and sorrows that ripple across nine decades. Though many will move on, this house will always be a part of them, because it resides always within the deep heart's core.
What readers are saying:
"This book captured my
heart from the very first chapter!"
"I love MaryPat Hyland's
books. This one is the best by far! I hope there are sequels to this book."
"This is a lovingly
written family saga spanning nine decades, and a joyous tribute to the Finger Lakes region of New York and the families that have been there for
generations. The characters are real and familiar, and so are the issues and
choices the various members of the family face."
