Echoes in the Fog: Literary Reflections on the Liminal Spaces of Maine’s Coast

Journey to Maine's fog-bound coast, where weather, memory, and tide shape every story. Echoes in the Fog: Literary Reflections on the Liminal Spaces of Maine's Coast gathers 58 poets, essayists, storytellers, and photographers responding to a shoreline defined by shifting light and changing seas. From quiet islands to rugged headlands, these works explore how place influences identity and how coastal communities adapt to an uncertain future. Edited by Steven Long with an introduction by Robin Alden, this volume is the first in the Literary Reflections On series to feature black-and-white images, adding a visual layer that deepens the sense of atmosphere and place. Together, the pieces create a textured portrait of the Maine coast—ecological, cultural, and personal. A portion of each sale supports the Maine Coast Heritage Trust, helping protect the landscapes that inspired the anthology. For readers drawn to environmental writing, coastal New England, and reflective storytelling, Echoes in the Fog offers a compelling blend of image and voice, grounded in one of America's most iconic—and vulnerable—coastlines.
