A sweeping novel about a single house in the woods of New England told through the lives of those who inhabit it across the centuries: young lovers from a Puritan Colony, an English soldier turned apple farmer, a lovelorn painter, a conman, a crime reporter, a stalking panther, a lusty beetle. Traversing cycles of history, nature, and even literature, North Woods shows the myriad, magical ways in which we’re connected to our environment and to one another, across time, language and space. It is an unforgettable novel about secrets and fates that asks the timeless question: How do we live on, even after we’re gone?  // Discuss in the Fiction reading group  //
