Bücher von Wilma Dykeman

Discovered as a typewritten manuscript after her death in 2006, Family of Earth allows us to see into the mind of the young author and Appalachian native Wilma Dykeman (1920-2006), who would become one of the American South's most prolific writers. Focusing on her childhood, Dykeman reveals a perceptive and sophisticated understanding of human nature, the environment, and social justice.

"The story is a good one ... for it exposes in an intimate and personal way the qualities of an important social architect of our time." -Dewey Grantham, American Historical Review
