Patience and Sarah (original title A Place For Us)

0/5 ( ratings)

Set in the Housatonic Valley of Connecticut in 1816, this exquisitely told and unusual love story is about two young women, Patience White and Sarah Dowling, who must contend not only with the narrowness of the puritanical farming community they live in but also with their own cowardice and doubt, to do something unheard of - live together and love each other. They know of no precedents for their relationship - they must construct it themselves with only their own feelings to guide them.

Isabel Miller's novel was inspired by the life of Mary Ann Willson, an American primitive painter of the early 1800s, who settled on a farm in Greene County, New York, with a devoted female companion.
