Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. Booklist Editors' Choice "Best Books of 2019"An intimate portrait of the joys and hardships of rural life, as one man searches for community, equality, and tradition in AppalachiaCharles D. Thompson, Jr. was born in southwestern Virginia into an extended family of small farmers. Yet as he came of age he witnessed the demise of every farm in his family. Over the course of his own life of farming, rural education, organizing, and activism, the stories of his home place have been his constant inspiration, helping him identify with the losses of others and to fight against injustices. In Going Over Home, Thompson shares revelations and reflections, from cattle auctions with his grandfather to community gardens in the coal camps of eastern Kentucky, racial disparities of white and Black landownership in the South to recent work with migrant farm workers from Latin America. In this heartfelt first-person narrative, Thompson unpacks our country's agricultural myths and addresses the history of racism and wealth inequality and how they have come to bear on our nation's rural places and their people. For readers of Sarah Smarsh's Heartland and J.D. Vance's Hillbilly Elegy, an intimate portrait of the joys and hardships of rural life, as one man searches for community, equality, and tradition in Appalachia.
