Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The Fifth Son of the Shoemaker' is a whimsical and enchanting novel that blends urban realism with the timeless quality of a modern fairy tale. Set in early 20th-century New York City, the story follows the fortunes of Pyotr, the youngest son of a Russian immigrant shoemaker who has brought his craft and his family to the bustling streets of America. As Pyotr navigates the vibrant, often harsh landscape of the city, Donald Corley weaves a narrative rich with folklore, romance, and the pursuit of artistic beauty. The work stands out for its unique atmosphere, capturing the immigrant experience through a lens of wonder and imagination. As Pyotr seeks his own path away from his father's bench, he encounters a world filled with aspiration and the lingering magic of his cultural heritage.
