Maine, 1789: When the Kennebec River freezes, entombing a man in the ice, Martha Ballard is summoned to examine the body and determine cause of death. As a midwife and healer, she is privy to much of what goes on behind closed doors in Hallowell. Her diary is a record of every birth and death, crime and debacle that unfolds in the close-knit community. Months earlier, Martha documented the details of an alleged rape committed by two of the town’s most respected gentlemen—one of whom has now been found dead in the ice.

LOVED this book and I don’t say that lightly! I couldn’t put it down or stop thinking about it. I finished it in 2 days. If in doubt, READ IT……and then be sure to read the Author’s Note AFTER you finish the book. Just trust me!

An illuminating, intricately woven memoir about friendships, loss, and language—a stunning affirmation of the conversations that shape and sustain us, even in the presence of death.

Although a sweet story and well written, it was not so much a “profoundly generous look at the power of language to nurture life” inspired by Mikhail Bakhtin, as the description suggests. It was simply a lovely tribute telling readers about her two friends that died. I struggled to get through it.
