S. Dorman began Maine Metaphor with The Green and Blue House. She continued her explorations in the Western Mountains of Maine, studying Maine's characteristic ways and natural realm, possessing the experience, studies, and journaling of rural life and creation. And she wanted to learn about the character of the people who sometimes must live a hardscrabble life. Her quest began thirty some years ago merely in living the life on moving to Maine with her family. This state of New England, once a District of Massachusetts, greatly appealed to her for its peculiar beauty and quiet, but also for its hard-working ethic. Maine flows with metaphors helpful in understanding our right relation to creation and its Maker. Maine's people, landscape, history, geology, weather, and writers tell of this reciprocity of life. Her spouse Allen supported the family, as you'll see in the book. Not, as she says, in order that she might write, but that she might eat After their brief familial confrontation with homelessness on moving to Maine, Allen struggled to earn a living, but now is retired, with a fixed income; yet work here is seasonal and difficult still for others making a living in the Western Mountains of Maine. Walk these back roads with her, meet some back roads folk, climb these high wooded hills and low stone mountains. Consider and dream over the telling, and come back to yourself from Maine, refreshed. ""S. Dorman is the best sort of essayist--one who draws connections, showing relationships where you had never thought to look for them before. Her musings on the people, places, and history of Maine are introspective, but always with an awareness of the wider world and of human beings existing in a natural and spiritual matrix. She surprises with unique insights and understated humor."" --Francesca Forrest, author S. Dorman is a lifelong creative writer living and writing in Maine. She is the author of The God's Cycle and Fantastic Travelogue: Mark Twain and C.S. Lewis Talk Things over in The Hereafter.
