Whispers on Woodsmoke is an endearing comedy/drama about life in Whip-Poor-Will Falls, a small rural town symbolic of anywhere.
People remember their lives from the places they’ve lived. In Whispers on Woodsmoke, one charming bungalow measures time by the families who’ve called it home. Anxiously awaiting its new owners, the house regales us with stories of the families who’ve shared their lives beneath its roof and between its walls. Sadness, wonder, despair, happiness and love: they’ve all blossomed with the people who’ve said I’m home.
Some stayed a season, while other people resided here for two decades. Each family has their own priceless memories that made their time in Whip-Poor-Will Falls so memorable. Unique and distinctive, the people are as irreplaceable as the town.
The book reveals an extraordinary confidence: guardians of their families’ secrets – indeed, their very lives -- houses need to communicate, and they do that by whispering on woodsmoke. Chimney smoke doesn’t rise straight up; it drifts sideways, floating toward other homes, and on that woodsmoke are whispers. Rest assured -- homes don’t gossip: they just like to know what’s going on.
Simple yet complex, Whispers on Woodsmoke is thoughtful and lighthearted, sad and encouraging, just like most lives are in the end. It’s an enchanting depiction of what it means to call a house a home.
