Lucy By The Sea

 This is the second book I have read that recounts back to us the life we have just recently been living..lockdown during a pandemic.  

This is a sweet story of Lucy and her ex-husband, William giving up their New York City apartments and living in a small remote cottage in Maine as the pandemic breaks out in the United States.   This is how they live in the isolation of the world shut down.  They are able to re -evaluate their relationship.  A second chance to come together , even through the things they never liked about each other, around to being friends again. 

Their adult daughters are both married and one is in Brooklyn lock downed in the apartment and the other leaves with her husband for Connecticut.   Their lives also are changed by the circumstances.  This is how they balance their relationships with their spouses and their parents.

This story is how life continues as the lockdown and pandemic continue way longer than anyone thought. But it is also just how lives interact day to day...the pandemic did affect so many  things but some things just happen also.
