Trail of the Lonesome Pine-Pa
ISBN: 9780813101569 / Angielski / Miękka / 440 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. John Fox Jr. published this great romantic novel of the Cumberland Mountains of Kentucky and Virginia in 1908, and the book quickly became one of America's favorites. It has all the elements of a good romance -- a superior but natural heroine, a hero who is an agent of progress and enlightenment, a group of supposedly benighted mountaineers to be drawn into the flow of mainstream American culture, a generous dose of social and class struggle, and a setting among the misty coves and cliffs of the blue Cumberlands. Reprinted with a foreword by John Ed Pearce, The Trail of the...

Like all fairy tales, it turns on subjection-the increasingly comic and catastrophic subjection of -our hero, Tom, - a high-minded and half-starved shoeshine boy. Tom shifts for himself in a dank and vaguely apocalyptic city where -the days come and go in a flat, lurid tide, noon and midnight like...
