Old Home Town
Autor Rose Wilder Laneen Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 oct 1985
In Old Home Town, Rose Wilder Lane has recreated small-town society of pre-World War I America with a precise feeling for decorum, dress, and kitchen dialogue. Like Sherwood Anderson in Winesburg, Ohio, she describes a community through the stories of certain memorable citizens. The overlay of nostalgia cannot hide some sharp observations about marriage and women's rights.

Recenzii
"Old Home Town is a human document, as real and homely and American as [a] red-checkered table cloth."—New York Times
"As Booth Tarkington and Eugene O'Neill have given us the small town of the nineties, Mrs. Lane shows us the first decade of the century."—Books
"Mrs. Lane has an uncanny knack of knowing what makes the wheels go round and why. She portrays the characters of this village in photographic detail, telling [their] stories . . . with keen wit, biting humor, and a full flavor."—Springfield Republican
