Descriere magazin:
A boy\'s account of growing up in the South during the depression era. Both a rare first novel and a new American classic,
Sams novel has been compared to Tom Sawyer and To Kill a Mockingbird. From the author of The Whisper of the River and Epiphany . In this coming-of-age story, Porter Osbourne Jr. is a precocious, sensitive, and rambunctious boy trying to make it through adolescence during the Depression. On a red-clay farm in Georgia, he learns all there is to know about cotton-chopping, hog-killing, watermelon-thumping, and mule-handling. School provides a quick course in practical joking, schoolboy crushes, athletic glory, and clandestine sex. But it is Porter\'s family-- his genteel, patient mother, his swarm of cousins, his snuff-dipping grandmother, and, most of all, his beloved though flawed father--who teaches Porter the painful truths about growing up strong enough to run
with the horsemen. The writing is elegant, reflective, and amused. Mr.
Sams is a storyteller sure of his audience . . . gifted
with perfect timing.-- The New York Times Book Review Remarkable both for its humor and its sustained and detailed picture of a mischievous Southern farmboy\'s life during the Great Depression.-- The Washington Post
