Kent Haruf has received prestigious awards, including a particular citation from the Pencil/Hemingway Basis for his finely-tuned works. Before the opening chapter of this book, Haruf offers a definition. Plainsong is "any simple and unadorned melody or air." Direct yet fashionable, Haruf's Plainsong is a hymn to the breadth of the real human spirit. A high school history teacher in a little Colorado town, Guthrie is boosting his two young sons by itself. Thoughtful and honest, he is guiding them through a global that is not always kind. Victoria, one of his students, is pregnant, homeless, and vulnerable to the scorn of the town. When Guthrie helps two seniors ranchers take the young female into their home, an improbable extended family exists. As the chapters of the people's lives alternate throughout Plainsong, loneliness and need are changed into nourishing bonds. Narrator Tom Stechschulte captures the refined changes that bring the men, women, and children jointly. His performance features every shading of this superb New York Times best-seller.
