The Edge of the World

The Edge of the World

by

William Henry Forester

The narratives unfold across the changing seasons, mirroring Maine's own cyclical dance of birth, growth, decay, and renewal. Here, we journey through the heartfelt moments of holidays, the simple yet profound joys of familial gatherings, and the profound sense of place that characterizes this northern realm.

In these lines, children build ephemeral empires on sandy shores, fishermen engage in a daily ballet with the ocean’s capricious temperament, and families find unity in age-old traditions. Along hiking trails that skirt the edge of the continent, wanderers confront the transcendent beauty of the land and sea. And on the fertile grounds of farms basking in summer's warmth, visitors and hosts alike partake in the timeless ritual of harvest.

William Henry Forester

William Henry Forester is a poet, folklorist, and storyteller whose work traces the quiet intersections of memory, myth, and the sea. Born in Inverness and now living on the rugged Maine coast with his wife, Lady Catherine Davis, Forester writes with lyrical precision and emotional resonance. From poetry and children’s tales to his haunting coastal mysteries, his stories explore solitude, loss, and the echoes of what we leave behind.
