Opis

The Beans of Egypt, Maine introduced the world to the notorious, unforgettable Bean clan of small town Egypt, Mainefrom wild man Reuben, an alcoholic who can t seem to keep himself out of jail; to his cousins, the perpetually pregnant Roberta, and Beal, a man gentle by temperament but violent in defeat who marries his pious neighbor, Earlene Pomerleau before poverty kills him. Through her story of the Beans s struggle with their inner demons to survive against hardship and societal ignorance, Chute emerged as a writer of immense humanity and unparalleled insight into a world most of us knew little ofif we d recognized it at all."
