Zustand: Gut. Zustand: Gut | Seiten: 306 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | "Small Acreages completes a trilogy of connected essays told in Georgia Green Stamper's unique Kentucky voice. First heard in You Can Go Anywhere-from the crossroads of the world, critics hailed her as "a master of the brief meditation, the humor…ous glance, and the short historical sketch." Her second collection, Butter in the Morning, secured her place in Kentucky's stable of writers. Both titles were jury selected for The Carnegie Center's "New Books by Great Kentucky Writers" reading series. Gwyn Hyman Rubio called her Kentucky's answer to Georgia's Bailey White. Silas House said that her essays did "that most important thing that only the most accomplished writers are sometimes lucky to do-capture and preserve a place, a time, and the people." In Small Acreages, readers are returned to Stamper's Eagle Creek world and its colorful characters, but her voice has both deepened with time and widened to include her journey beyond Natlee. Many of the essays in this new collection are reflective or as Stamper phrases it, she hopes "to add a handful of words to the ongoing conversation about what it means to be human." Her wry humor endures, however, popping into even the most poignant of pieces, grounding her, cutting through the absurd as her daddy taught her to do, reminding her as her mother did that "you might as well laugh." Small Acreages introduces new essays to her readers and collects some of Stamper's most requested and popular essays from her earlier books. Returning readers will not be disappointed as they reconnect with Stamper's unique world. New readers will delight in discovering this authentic Kentucky voice. Both will find her voice true as she weaves effortlessly between the lyrical to the vernacular, from sublime topics to the mundane. With wisdom and humor and compassion, Stamper reminds all readers that if we strive to unite with the universe, we must pay attention to the "small acreages . that have been entrusted to us" for safekeeping"--.
