SEBASTIAN JUNGER
The Perfect Storm
.....
Ethel, he said, shaking his head, no one’s ever given me a present before.
Ethel Shatford was born in Gloucester and has lived out her whole life half a mile from the Crow’s Nest Inn. There are people in town, she says, who have never driven the forty-five minutes to Boston, and there are others who have never even been over the bridge. To put this into perspective, the bridge spans a piece of water so narrow that fishing boats have trouble negotiating it. In a lot of ways the bridge might as well not even be there; a good many people in town see the Grand Banks more often than, say, the next town down the coast.
