Letters to Chloe

Descriere

These are real-life stories of a grandfather telling his granddaughter about events in his life that were amusing, nostalgic, and often dangerous. These were probably not your usual childhood events unless falling down mountains, spending nights in jails, and smuggling goods across Europe were typical of your growing up. The settings are the South of the 1950s, and Chicago, Europe, and the national parks in the '1960s'. The letters detail his experiences and reflect his rejection of racism and other values so prevalent in Southern society while he was growing up. In his final letter, he comes full circle by enjoying the country lifestyle of his youth and revels in its natural place in his heart.
