Paperback. Zustand: Fair. NATIONAL BESTSELLER . With the same emotional generosity and effortlessly compelling storytelling that made All Over But the Shoutin' a beloved bestseller, Rick Bragg continues his personal history of the Deep South. This time he's writing about his grandfather Charlie Bundrum, a man who died before Bragg was born but left an indelible imprint on the people who loved him. Drawing on their memories, Bragg reconstructs the life of an unlettered roofer who kept food on his family's table through the worst of the Great Depression; a moonshiner who drank exactly one pint for every gallon he sold; an unregenerate brawler, who could sit for hours with a baby in the crook of his arm. In telling Charlie's story, Bragg conjures up the backwoods hamlets of Georgia and Alabama in the years when the roads were still dirt and real men never cussed in front of ladies. A masterly family chronicle and a human portrait so vivid you can smell the cornbread and whiskey, Ava's Man is unforgettable.…

Zustand: As New. : En 'Ava's Man', Rick Bragg continúa su historia personal del Sur Profundo, evocando la infancia de su madre en las estribaciones de los Apalaches durante la Gran Depresión y la historia del hombre que la crió. Charlie Bundrum era un techador, carpintero, fabricante de whisky y pescador que conocía cada centímetro del río Coosa. Un hombre que dio pasos gigantes en botas gastadas, un verdadero héroe a quien la historia de otro modo habría pasado por alto.En la década de la Gran Depresión, Charlie trasladó a su familia veintiuna veces, manteniendo a siete hijos un paso por delante de la pobreza y el hambre que los amenazaban por todos lados. Trabajó en la fábrica de acero cuando el acero estaba en auge, o por un lado de tocino o un celemín de melocotones cuando no lo estaba. Le pagó al médico que dio a luz a su cuarta hija, Margaret, la madre de Bragg, con una jarra de whisky. Tenía talento para vivir y sus hijos lo veneraban. Cuando murió, los coches se alinearon en el asfalto durante más de un kilómetro. Rick Bragg ha construido un monumento a su abuelo, un padre que apoyó a su familia en los tiempos difíciles y dejó una leyenda en los bosques.
