Did you know you don’t even need a car on Nantucket? It’s too charming for cars! And too charming for tents apparently as you’re not allowed to camp anywhere on the island. Its summer on Nantucket, and as the season begins, three women arrive at the local airport, observed by Josh, a local boy, home from college. Her recipe for a happy island life includes running, writing at the beach, picnics at Eel Point with her three children, and singing 'Home, Sweet Home' at the Club Car piano bar. Take a bike like the rest of the islanders seem to use. Barefoot Elin Hilderbrand, Rachael Warren (reader) Hachette Audio, 2012 preloaded digital audio player English 5.) Pieds nus Elin Hilderbrand Le Livre de Poche/Librairie Générale Française (LGF), 2011 paperback French 6. Elin Hilderbrand first discovered the magic of Nantucket in July 1993. Nantucket is always busy! With Brant Lighthouse in the background, this really is the place to relax, take a stroll and read a book (ie this one!) There is a crush of people on the wharf – those disembarking, those picking up house guests, tourists wandering the shops, hungry couple in search of lunch. It follows the journey of three women as they escape to Nantucket after.

In 1877 Edward Underhill from Wolcott, New York bought land in the village and constructed cottages in the fashion of the original fishing shacks and then rented them to summer tourists. Barefoot by Elin Hilderbrand is a story of resilience, survival and self discovery. Shell Street is a place of interest in the novel and Brenda’s favourite three words are Shell Street, Sconset. In the 19th century, there was a whaling station present in the village. The area of the island where the market and shops are located. She is joined by her best friend, Melanie, who is finally pregnant. “A summer on Nantucket was the answer all the way around.” Barefoot chronicles a summer in the life of Connecticut native and mother of two Vicki, recently diagnosed with lung cancer. Hilderbrands saga follows the lives of Melanie, Brenda and Vicki. Even from afar the island looks like a dream for a holiday! Privileged 30-somethings hide from their woes in Nantucket.
