Beschreibung:
Caroline Miller was born in 1903. After her marriage, she began traveling through rural south Georgia, interviewing the people she met and planning a novel; as she had not attended college, her husband taught her about literature. "He was my college," she said. In 1934, she won the Pulitzer Prize for Literature with Lamb in His Bosom. Her second novel, Lebanon, was published in 1944. Miller passed away in 1992.
Richly authentic and lyrically descriptive, "Lamb in His Bosom" pays poignant tribute to a woman's life lived on the line between the nature outside her and the nature within. Married two decades before the Civil War, Cean Smith learns to navigate material and social hardships as she stands witness to cycles of marriage, birth, and death in this transcendent tale of love and loss. "Lamb in His Bosom" received the Pulitzer in 1934. 385 pp.
