The Wine of Astonishment Paperback - 2014
by Rachel MacKenzie
Rachel MacKenzie's only novel, this is a graceful and charming tale of two very different sisters growing up in the Finger Lakes region of New York State in the 1920s and 1930s. At the ages of 32 and 29, Martha and Esther have just lost their dominating mother, but life seems to stretch calmly before them, until the two fall in love, Esther with a married man and Martha with their bachelor pastor. Up and down elm-covered Main Street people are talking, but the girls carry on, defiant, surprising themselves and us, the readers.
From the rear cover
With a delicate sense of tragedy and serene lucidity, Rachel Mackenzie, the late fiction editor of the New Yorker, tells the story of the Henderson sisters of Pliny Falls, New York, during the early decades of the twentieth century. Not unlike the characters in Edith Wharton's Ethan Frome and Henry James' The Beast in the Jungle, Martha and Esther Henderson are drawn with an acute sense of perception, courage, and irony which encompasses humanity.
