Homestead Fiction Audiobook/The Dollmaker/ Chapter 2/Harriett Arnow/American Novelist & Historian

#fiction #homesteading #wwii #appalachian #audiobook #homestead Thank you for joining me today as we read Chapter 2 of Harriett Arnow's beautiful fiction novel The Dollmaker! In Chapter 1, we meet Gertie, a large, hardworking, poor, family first, Christian woman from the Appalachian mountains of Kentucky. Gertie's display of bravery, tenacity, and determination was enough to change even an army officer's mind about his predetermined characterizations of mountain people. Gertie has been secretly saving money for many years in order to purchase her own farm so that she doesn't have to share half of what she makes as a sharecropper. Will Gertie be able to see her dream of owning a farm come to pass or will the tumultuous demands of WWII and ever increasing industrialization tear her family apart? A rich fiction novel with American history woven throughout. Thank you for watching! Like, subscribe, share, and comment if you feel so inclined!
