Cottage For Sale: Must Be Moved - E-book - ePub

When Kate Whouley saw the classified ad for an abandoned cottage that had to be moved, she began to dream.  Transport the cottage.attach it to my three-room house.create more space for my work and life.. Smart, single, and self-employed, Whouley was used to fending for herself.  But she wasn't prepared for half the complications of her house-moving adventures.  Supported by loyal friends, and egged on by her bossy gray cat, Whouley encountered a parade of town officials, a small convoy of State Police (who escorted her cottage, with lights flashing, through four Cape Cod towns), and an army of house-moving, home-building men.  Like the cottage on wheels, Kate Whouley takes the back roads, with a keen eye for the inner scenery.  For everyone who has ever dreamed of creating a space of their own, there is a cottage for sale.
You only have to move it. The memoir Anna Quindlen called "a pitch-perfect description of both small-town life and personal anticipation" is now available in a 20th-anniversary edition, complete with a brand-new bonus chapter by the author that catches readers up on the cottage, Kate, and the current (just as bossy)Cat-in-Charge.
