At Sunwich Port, Part 2.: Contents: Chapters 6-10
Jem Hardy has come home to Sunwich, and nothing is quite as he left it. The seaside town with its salty airs and meddling neighbors remains stubbornly unchanged in its quirks, but Kate Nugent has grown into something far more dangerous to a young man's peace of mind than any storm at sea. There's only one problem: their fathers have been locked in a grudge for so long that even the seagulls probably can't remember what started it. W.W. Jacobs, master of the comic short story, turns his gimlet eye to the small dramas of coastal life: romantic misfires, proud fathers, disappointed daughters, and the terrible temptation of matchmaking neighbors. The humor lands with the precision of a well-thrown harpoon, poking fun at provincial snobbery, romantic bashfulness, and the peculiar way small towns hold both your future and your past in the same bony hands. This is comfort reading of the highest order: gentle, wry, and impossible to put down once you've slipped into Sunwich's peculiar rhythm.
