A Pulitzer Prize-winning critic and columnist for the "Washington Post" presents a first novel, limning a vision of small-town America in the Midwest in the late thirties
Review:
'gentle, wry story about childhood and memory before the Depression, World War II and the Civil Rights movement changed and challenged social norms.'
(Daily Mail)'This candid, unnerving and unexpectedly dark novel take hold of the imagination and the memory, firmly pushing aside many flashier works as it settle down to stay put.'
(Irish Times)
