About this listen

A captivating historical novel set on Cape Cod and North Carolina's Outer Banks, perfect for fans of Where the Crawdads Sing and Marilynne Robinson's Housekeeping.

Cape Cod, 1890s: Between tides, a man deserts his wife and his post as keeper of the Chatham Beach Lifesaving Station to start a new family far to the south, at Cape Hatteras.

The 1940s: His daughter, en route to serve in World War II with the Red Cross, travels to Cape Cod where she meets his first wife, Blythe, reanimating a life she had long buried: memories of her courtship, her bitter losses, and her husband's slow-motion vanishing.

Set on two wild seascapes, Cape Cod and North Carolina's Outer Banks, Between Tides is a lyrical novel for fans of Virginia Woolf, Djuna Barnes, and Marilynne Robinson - a story of two women stitching together a family ripped at the seams and discovering that even through absence, love's presence is everlasting.

I started this book several times but my attention would drift as it is a human condition book, flips around in time, and just did not have a plot that engaged me. The writing in places was beautiful and the narration good. But never really cared about any of the characters.
