Details
by Margaret A. Westlie (Author)
Discover the magic of memory, community, and belonging on Canada's beloved Prince Edward Island.
What does it mean to belong to a place-not just live there, but feel it in your bones? In A Sense of Place, Margaret Westlie invites you into a world of red clay roads, fiddle-filled parlours, wind-whipped shorelines, and generations of stories passed down like family heirlooms. With warmth, wit, and deeply felt nostalgia, Westlie paints a vivid portrait of Island life, blending personal memoir, cultural reflection, and literary charm. Each essay is a journey-sometimes tender, sometimes humorous-through everyday moments that shimmer with meaning: milking cows at dusk, sleeping under starlit skies, or the timeless ritual of gathering with neighbours over tea and music. Whether writing about bagpipes, barn cats, or second sight, Westlie's voice is intimate, inviting, and deeply rooted in place. For readers who cherish the lyrical beauty of rural life, the echoes of tradition, and the pull of home-this book is a love letter to a vanishing world, and a heartfelt reminder that where we come from matters. Step into Prince Edward Island's heart and history-and maybe, rediscover your own sense of place.
