Though primarily about the adult Burgess siblings, there is a strong thread relating to Somali #refugees in Maine. Incredibly moving story that helps our understanding of challenges living in a new unfamiliar & sometimes unfriendly country. My favorite Strout novel. Article from 10 years ago, but unfortunately still timely reminder. "Hate can not drive out hate, only love can do that." --MLK #NewYearNewBooks @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
