Born in Summit, New Jersey, Susan Kenney teaches at Colby College and has written two works with nautical themes: <em>Sailing<\/em> (1989) and <em>One Fell Sloop<\/em> (1990). Both are based on her experiences steering boats and her apprehension about sailing. Sailing follows middle-aged Sara and Phil Boyd in their purchase and sailing of a twenty-year-old sloop. Though she herself takes no pleasure in sailing, to Sara the boat symbolizes a gift of hope and renewed life that she can give Phil, who is ailing with cancer. To Phil, the boat symbolizes self-discovery and control over his destiny; his final voyage alone is a literal one. Sailing becomes a metaphor for the best the married couple can know about each other and about their relationship. <em>One Fell Sloop<\/em>, set in the waters near a coastal island in Maine&#8217;s Penobscot Bay, is a nautical mystery that includes a chase and rescue at sea.<strong><strong><strong><strong><a id=\"a185\" name=\"kenny\"><\/a><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 80px\"><em>Sailing<\/em>&nbsp;(1989)<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 160px\"><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.org\/details\/sailing00kenn\">Archive.org<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 80px\"><em>One Fell Sloop<\/em>&nbsp;(1990)<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 160px\"><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.org\/details\/onefellslooparoz00susa\">Archive.org<\/a><\/p>\n<p>keywords: white, female<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Mira Dock&nbsp;(2000) KENNEY, SUSAN [McILVAINE] (1941- ).
