Theophilus North: A Novel | Thornton Wilder
post image
Mehso-so

It‘s the 1920s and a new Yale grad finds himself working for the rich in Newport RI over a summer. He‘s no Nick Carraway & so this book stays in the shallows. I read it while on vacation there. Fun to walk the town with the characters & learn stuff. While there I saw that Newport has a big variety of trees. For centuries the residents planted trees from around the globe. There‘s even a colonial tree walk! A pretty good book in a great setting.
