A Long and Happy Life de Reynolds Price

A Long and Happy Life

Autor Reynolds Price
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 apr 2009
Ecstatically reviewed and winner of the William Faulkner Award for a notable first novel when it was published in 1962, "A Long and Happy Life" launched the career of Reynolds Price, a writer considered to be "one of our greatest novelists" (Harper Lee).
From its dazzling opening page, which announced the appearance of a stylist of the first rank, to its moving close, this brief novel has charmed and captivated millions of readers since its original publication almost fifty years ago. The troubled love story of pretty, headstrong Rosacoke Mustian and the motorcycle-riding, stoic Wesley Beavers, "A Long and Happy Life" beautifully evokes a rural North Carolina now long gone.
