I didn't enjoy this book as well as I had expected to, perhaps in part due to the timing of my read. A collection of short stories about a fictional small town and, of course, the people who inhabit it, it is biting commentary on American small-town life during Rose Wilder Lane's lifetime. After reading this book, I sensed that she lived an unhappy, pessimistic life. At any rate, the book doesn't have the happy optimism of the Laura Ingalls Wilder books... maybe I wrongly expected that it would, having just read through the "Little House" series with my daughter before picking up this one. I'd like to give Lane's book a fresh read some day. --rwj Zeige 2 von 2 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
In Old Home Town, Rose Wilder Lane has recreated small-town society of pre-World War I America with a precise feeling for decorum, dress, and kitchen dialogue. Like Sherwood Anderson in Winesburg, Ohio, she describes a communitynbsp;through the stories of certain memorable citizens. The overlay of nostalgia cannot hide some sharp observations about marriage and women's rights. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
