". . . a definitive five-star experience." -Natacha Belair, Award-Winning Author of A Stellar Purpose ". . . Langton has crafted a book in Victorian Stillness that is to be savored and reread." -Greg Fields, Award-Winning Author of Through the Waters and the Wild "A true masterpiece, Langton showcases his artistic and creative natural ability . . ." -Emily Keefer, Author of The Stars on Vita Felice Court Jeanne's expansive Upstate New York property, complete with a picturesque Victorian farmhouse, has been in her family since 1808. She hopes to pass the property down to her young grandson, Oscar, but, unfortunately, it's the end of an era. The land faces enormous economic and societal problems, and as Jeanne ages, she finds herself at the mercy of a younger and unreliable workforce. Realizing her predicament, Jeanne must resort to hiring caretakers. Unqualified, entitled, and manipulative, Lez and Rudge move upstate from New York City to become Jeanne's supposed safety net. To Oscar, they represent the decay of modern society. And throughout their tenure as property managers, Oscar sees his pride in the land become hate for those who want to take advantage of it. Told through the lens of a satirically strange modern landscape, Victorian Stillness delves deeply into the life and death of an American property.
