Dori Sanders' first novel, Clover, gained her the sought after Lillian Smith Award, a Walt Disney movie option, and an appearance on NBC's Weekend Today. Now her eagerly awaited second novel can take her viewers to rural SC again for a soothing and wise look at the lives of everyday people, dark and white. Really the only child of tenant farmers, Mae Lee Barnes marries young and will save you her salary from the munitions factory to buy a plantation. When her hubby returns from World War II, he can't keep employment, disappears for weeks at the same time, and lastly leaves Mae Lee alone to improve five children and run the plantation. Being the proud and indomitable female that she actually is, Mae Lee changes her life through the years to meet the vagaries of fortune and the changing times. A perfect blend of funny and pathos, Her Own Place is a voyage of brain and center. The skill of narrator Kim Staunton makes it a story to be savored and enjoyed.
