    Summary

    Midsommar in Sweden. Margaret's head spins from dancing around the maypole, the snaps served with lunch, and the magic of the holiday. And from looking into Per's sparkling, sapphire eyes. There's something in them, something true. Hope, that's what she sees, that's what she feels. For the first time in forever.

    Summary

    Working in the states, in a hospital, is great. Wonderful. Just as perfect as Margaret thought it would be, she tells herself. Anything else would be a failure, and Margaret Houlihan does not acknowledge those. The unmoving walls around her bed at night tell a different story, though.
    Then, there’s a phone call on a rainy afternoon. A voice from another world, a wind from the ocean. A memory.
    And a while later, she’s sitting on a train, heading north. Seeing an old friend in a small town by the ocean, continuing the motion that started in Korea, 100 years ago.

    Summary

    The picturesque village of Buell, Maine is one of the last in the United States to continue the tradition of the “harvest” or “prosperity” lottery. Its residents insist the lottery makes them stronger, even as condemnation from outsiders grows.
