dinners―the house faced the ocean and the sky, and though it was eventually replaced by a sturdier structure, the ethos remained the same: no heat, no TV, and no telephone. Instead, there were countless hours at the beach, meals cooked and savored with friends, nights talking under the stars, until in 2014, the house was sold.To the New Owners is Madeleine Blais’s charming, evocative memoir of this house, and of the Vineyard itself―from the history of the island and its famous visitors to the ferry, the pie shops, the quirky charms and customs, and the abundant natural beauty.

For Blais, it was the Vineyard house―a retreat and a dependable pleasure that also measured changes in her family.
