| From Publishers Weekly Jewett's 1896 novel and selected stories about the fictional town of Dunnett Landing in rural Maine. Copyright 1994 Reed Business Information, Inc. From AudioFile A summer's idyll unfolds at Dunnett's Landing on the coast of Maine. This turn-of-the-century classic is read by Cindy Hardin, whose mellifluous tones may seem sentimental to some younger readers. But for those of us old enough to remember reading aloud by the fire, her voice conjures up a mood rich with bittersweet memory. The characters are well-depicted although confusion in the regional accent and mispronunciations occasionally occur. The overall effect, however, is convincing and professional. S.B.S.
