The Dutch House by Ann Patchett

5.0

Such a beautifully told story!   A man purchases the Dutch House, a magnificent estate house, for his wife and young children. What follows is a story of what this purchase does to the family. It’s a story told from the perspective of the youngest child Danny.  He and his sister Maeve deal with many things throughout the book, some sad and tough times, but their relationship is so lovely and you can feel the love they have each other radiating off the page. I They take such good care of each other over the many years we are with them in this story.  This was wonderfully written, quiet-but very touching. A story about a family and the things that change throughout the years
