Summary

"Tiverton Tales" by Alice Brown is a collection of short stories that paints a picture of life in the fictional New England town of Tiverton, during the late 1800s, showing readers a simpler time. The stories each focus on the ordinary events and people of the town, creating a patchwork of the community's everyday joys and struggles. You'll meet characters like Della, a housewife with strength, and Amelia, who doesn’t follow the rules very well, and watch as their stories unpack themes of home, community, and the little details of country life. The stories take you to Tiverton's dooryards, full of family moments and daily chores, and even though life isn't always easy, the stories look at love, dreams, and sadness, which makes the whole town feel connected. With a mix of funny and sad moments, these stories invite readers to find the beauty and depth in a simple life.
