the long version
"Set in a small Vermont town in the early decades of the twentieth century, Housewrights tells the story of Lily Willard, the town librarian, and her relationship with Oren and Ian Pritchard, carpenters who roam New England building houses for others though they themselves are homeless. Lily first meets the twins one magical summer when they are children. Ten years later, Oren returns for Lily, marries her, and settles down - for the first time in his life. When Ian comes back from the Great War, shell-shocked and wounded, Lily welcomes him into their home. Eyebrows are raised only silently at this unusual household, until one evening at the Grange Hall dance the three take a heady, impetuous waltz together - with practically the entire town watching."--BOOK JACKET.
