Grace

In each of her novels, Jane Roberts Wood demonstrates her remarkable talent as a chronicler of both time & place. Her tales of Texas, first in the early 1900's in Train to Estelline; in the days of World War I in A Place Called Sweet Shrub; through the Great Depression in Dance a Little Longer; & now, in Grace, during World War II, are vividly imagine portraits of an America now almost forgotten. Grace is set in the east Texas town of Cold Spring in 1944, when it seemed the whole populace waited, collective breath held, for the War to end. In this place where certain boundaries were not breached, in a time when people revealed little about themselves, their problems, & their passions, this novel takes readers into the lives of four families on the 900 block of Pine Street.Wood, Jane Roberts is the author of 'Grace' with ISBN 9780525946021 and ISBN 0525946020.
