Book Synopsis Reapers of the Dust by : Lois Phillips Hudson
Download or read book Reapers of the Dust written by Lois Phillips Hudson and published by Minnesota Historical Society Press. This book was released on 1984 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lois Phillips Hudson is recognized as a major chronicler of America's agricultural heartland during the grim years of the Great Depression. Reapers of the Dust, now reprinted for a new generation of readers, vividly evokes that difficult time. From Hudson's childhood in North Dakota spring these unusual, moving stories of simple, joyful days, of continuing battles with hostile elements, and of a family's new life as migrant workers on the West Coast. "Hudson writes with grace and beauty and an abiding understanding of the meaning of those bitter, tragic years."--Chicago Tribune "These tales are to 'discomfit civilization,' in the tradition of personal accounts of the settling of the West by such writers as Mari Sandoz, Wallace Stegner, and Walter Van Tilburg Clark."--The Nation
Book Synopsis The Bones of Plenty by : Lois Phillips Hudson
Download or read book The Bones of Plenty written by Lois Phillips Hudson and published by Minnesota Historical Society Press. This book was released on 1984 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lois Phillips Hudson eloquently portrays George Custer, a determined and angry man who must battle both the land and the landlord; his hard-working wife Rachel; and their young and vulnerable daughter Lucy. Through their compelling story looms a sense of a whole nation's tragedy during the Great Depression. Reviews of The Bones of Plenty: "It is possible . . .that literary historians of the future will decide that The Bones of Plenty was the farm novel of the Great Drought of the 1920s and 1930s and the Great Depression. Better than any other novel of the period with which I am familiar, Lois Phillips Hudson's story presents, with intelligence and rare understanding, the frightful disaster that closed thousands of rural banks and drove farmers off their farms, the hopes and savings of a lifetime in ruins about them."--New York Times Book Review "Hudson does a superb job of revealing the physical texture of farm life on the prairie--its sounds, smells, colors, sensations. Then she goes further, examining the spiritual texture as well. Her characters are bound to each other and to their land in a kind of harsh intimacy from which there is no relief. Weather, poverty, anger, and pride are the forces that drive them and ultimately wear them down. . . Like the best books of any era, it convinces us of its characters' enduring humanity, and surprises us, again and again, with the depth of emotion it makes us feel."--Minneapolis Star Tribune "At her best, Lois Phillips Hudson can make the American Ordeal of the 1930s so real that you can all but feel the gritty dust in your teeth."--Omaha World-Herald

Book Synopsis The Nature of the Place by : Diane Dufva Quantic
Download or read book The Nature of the Place written by Diane Dufva Quantic and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1995-06-01 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Great Plains has long been fertile ground for literature. The Nature of the Place is a comprehensive study of novels and stories by such Plains writers as Willa Cather, Wright Morris, Mari Sandoz, Laura Ingalls Wilder, Frederick Manfred, Wallace Stegner, and Bess Streeter Aldrich. Throughout, Diane Dufva Quantic is aware of the region’s collective social and cultural history—aware of the immensely fruitful clash between that complex history and Plains myth (such as “Garden of the World” and “Great American Desert”). In the vast and changeable Great Plains, as Wright Morris once remarked, “Many things would come to pass, but the nature of the place would remain a matter of opinion.”

Book excerpt: Miles Lechler is nothing special. Like a million other highschoolers, he spends his days blissfully unaware of the comings and goings of life, absorbed in his own world of school, football and crushes. That is, until one rainy afternoon, when a fatal car accident changes what he thought he knew about death. Lance is a predator. A prodigy of the reapers, a sect of human souls overseen by the angels themselves, Lance mercilessly hunts the recently departed, dutifully carrying them onwards to paradise. That is, until one rainy night, when a rogue burst of spiritual power changes what he thought he knew about life after death. Now Lance, or as he was once called, Miles, must move quickly, fighting in both the physical and spiritual realms against nightmarish creatures born of sin, ancient demons hungering for pain, and perhaps most frighteningly, a growing hatred for humanity bred within the angels themselves. The fate of both worlds hangs in the balance.
