Summary

Nineteen stories on the joys and sorrows of the inhabitants of a small town in New Hampshire. In Yankee Curse, elderly Miranda knits placidly at a town meeting, pondering unspoken invective against an enemy, but stopping short of "a curse she would never levy, not even on Mort Wallace: to live too long."
