Product Information
A true classic, even more impressive as it's a debut, the story is about a small town and its citizens in the southern US in the 1930s. The book was a huge success when it was published and it has maintained its phenomenal reputation since, with various adaptations for the screen and stage. Elisa, Book Grocer This is a touching story of a deaf man and his life with his one real friend in 1930’s small town America. Beautifully evocative, both sweet and sad, this tale of an outcast is reminiscent of Steinbeck, and will have you held to the very last page. Amarina, Book Grocer
