Download Between Them: Remembering My Parents AudioBook Free
From American professional Richard Ford, a memoir: his first work of nonfiction, a stirring narrative of memory and parental love. How could it be that people come to consider our parents as people who have rich and extreme lives that include but also exclude us? Richard Ford's parents - Edna, a feisty, fairly Catholic-school woman with a hard history; and Parker, a sweet-natured, soft-spoken vacationing salesman - were rural Arkansans blessed at the move of the 20th century. Wedded in 1928, they resided "alone together" on the highway, vacationing throughout the South. Eventually they had one child, blessed later part of the, in 1944. For Ford, the questions of what his parents imagined, how they adored each other and adored him turn into a striking portrait of American life in the midcentury. Between Them is his brilliant image of where his life commenced and where his parents' lives found their most significant satisfaction. Bringing his celebrated candor, wit, and intelligence to this most romantic and incomprehensible of landscapes - our parents' lives - the award-winning storyteller and creator of the iconic Frank Bascombe delivers an unforgettable exploration of memory, intimacy, and love.
