Atomic Farmgirl: Growing Up Right in the Wrong Place
Autor Teri Heinen Limba Engleză Paperback – 17 apr 2003
Combining a profoundly tender story of youth with politics and an unmistakable sense of place, Teri Hein has written a memoir that is part Terry Tempest Williams, part Erin Brockovich, part Garrison Keillor. In the end, she offers a rich and ribald journey into the universal mysteries of childhood, love, community, and home, a journey that confirms humankind’s infinite capacity for hope.
