About the Book
|
- Rosemary Daniell, author of Fatal Flowers: On Sin, Sex and Suicide in the Deep South
- “Invokes the deep rural South, and a time, a place, and a people so accurately that one can almost hear the beat of a heart, the touch of a hand on a cheek. As a major chronicler of our near past, with both its darkness and light, Miller has penned a novel in which the lives of the characters soon become almost as real as our own.”
- Madison Jones, author of Last Things
- “Has what most current novels sadly lack: a strong narrative line. The novel should please readers, as well as reliably inform them about the deplorable economic conditions that, during the 1920s and ‘30s, prevailed in Alabama and other parts of the South.”
- Helen Blackshear, former Alabama Poet Laureate and author of The Creek Captives
- “Miller knows her people, the poor white farmers of hill-country Alabama. James Agee showed us their faces in Let Us Now Praise Famous Men. This writer reveals their hearts and their dreams. It is a page turner, an unforgettable read.”
