Cotton Mill GirlTate Publishing, 2007 - 323 pagina's Joining the other lintheads at the local cotton mill, Selena 'Sippy' Wright gave up the world of a child and took on the responsibility of a woman as her family joined the emerging middle class on the landscape of the nation's fledgling economy. Facing the harsh realities of America's Industrial Revolution, Sippy learns to find her joy through the love of her friends and family, and eventually though the art of poetry. Join author Flora Ann Scearce as she shares her own mother's story, a story of life and learning, but more importantly a story of love and finding one's self during a time when the only thing constant in the world was change. |
