30-something Libby Patrick is just regaining some post-baby control over her life when husband Oliver's job demands they move from their English home to Woodhaven, a town in rural Massachusetts. It's a big move for Libby, made no easier by the guilt trips thrust upon her by family members she's leaving behind.
Woodhaven, though, is an idyllic place to live. A place where it's safe to leave your back door unlocked, and where neighbours bring cakes to new arrivals from England. For Libby, it's love at first sight, but for how long? Maybe her infatuation will last -- or perhaps the reality of being an expat fish out of water and the inevitable politics of small town life will spoil its picture-perfect facade.
Will a move abroad mean a fresh start for Libby? Or is "fresh start" just another way of saying "back to square one"?
"Libby's Life" is a long-running fiction serial at The Displaced Nation website. "Taking Flight" is Libby's journal of her first year in Woodhaven.
