Between Them LP

Viac o knihe

Exploring the complex lives of his parents, Richard Ford delves into their individual histories and the dynamics of their relationship. Edna, a spirited Catholic-school girl with a troubled background, and Parker, a gentle traveling salesman, navigated their lives in rural Arkansas during the early 20th century. Married in 1928, they experienced a life of solitude together, traveling across the South before welcoming their only child in 1944. The narrative reveals how parental identities shape our understanding of their existence beyond our own.
