Summary

Louisa has come to her parents₂ house in Maine this summer with all three of her kids, a barely-written book, and a trunkful of resentment. Left behind in Brooklyn is her husband, who has promised that after this final round of fundraising at his startup he will once again pick up his share of the household responsibilities. Louisa is hoping that the crisp breeze off Penobscot Bay will blow away the irritation she is feeling with her life choices and replace it with enthusiasm for both her family and her work. But all isn₂t well in Maine. Louisa₂s father, a retired judge and pillar of the community, is suffering from Alzheimer₂s. Louisa₂s mother is alternately pretending everything is fine and not pretending at all. And one of Louisa₂s children happens upon a very confusing and heartfelt letter referring to something Louisa doesn₂t think her father could possibly have done
