Cathy’s Reviews > Lucy by the Sea > Status Update

Although a big fan of Strout, I’m not enjoying it as much as I hoped. It is written at beginning of pandemic where New York is heavily hit by Covid. William, a scientist and Lucy’s ex-husband, decides it is safer to get out of NY city. They go to a small community in Maine. It is purposely a slow book with not much happening with all the social distancing and staying within your pod of people.
