The sequel to Sarah, Plain and Tall, has a surprising amount of emotional depth, and, much like Sarah's reference to Jacob's letters, contains a lot written between the lines.
After Sarah moves west to marry Jacob, a drought brings hardships to the prairie community, and their marriage faces its first true test.
Told from the point of view of their daughter, Anna, this was a very realistic depiction of how circumstances can put strain on a relationship even when neither partner is doing anything wrong.
The introduction of Sarah's three aunts in Maine is a delightful addition to the cast, and the final resolution is hopeful and affirming. This book completely exceeded expectations for me.
