Paperback. Condition: Used; Good. A orange vintage Penguin paperback edition of The Stars Grow Pale by Karl Bjarnhof, published in 1960! This is the story of a boy whose early years were filled with an array of tragic and challenging issues, not the least of which is his growing blindness. Looking back on his childhood from many years in the future, the tone is stoic yet unsparing of the details of the situation and actions of Karl Bjarnhof?s family and childhood associates, and his own reactions and thoughts. Karl, from his own self-description, was a stubborn and introspective child, occasionally impulsive, and often unable to explain his own actions or respond emotionally appropriately to the out-reaching of others. The deep love of his parents for their troubled child comes through clearly and poignantly, though Karl does not acknowledge those feelings in so many words in this account. Tittle: The Stars Grow Pale Author: Karl Bjarnhof Publisher: Penguin Publication Date: 1960 Format: Softcover Condition: This book is in good condition for its age other than some minor signs of wear, age spots, inscription and tanned pages.…
