![]() The Inn at Lake Devine Elinor Lipman LITERATURE 1999 PAPER 253 PAGES
A witty, romantic comedy about a young Jewish woman who becomes fixated on an anti-Semitic resort in Vermont. "Our guests who feel most comfortable here, and return year after year, are Gentiles," reads a letter addressed to Emily Marx's mother's inquiry about vacation accommodations, setting Emily off on several years of entanglement with the family that owns the inn. It's a good-humored novel of identity and relationships, revealing the social climate of New England during the 1960s.
