William Kent Cruger "This Tender Earth"
For fans where the crayfish are singing, an excellent, unforgettable story about love and betrayal, wisdom, cowardice and willingness to sacrifice yourself and, of course , about the all -consuming hope.
In the summer of 1932, during the great depression, four orphans run away from harsh life in the Lincoln school, where children are sent by force, separating the places that they can call the house. They go along the Mississippi River on a dangerous journey, which will affect not only their lives, but also the attitude to the world and each other. And from the side of people and the law.
Friends have yet to find out that this world is not only cruel, but also full of beautiful people who are ready to share their care and the few that they have left. Definitely will become a modern classic!

Here, side by side live an eccentric winemaker Otis Till and single mother Margo, daughter of the famous parents Emilia Forester and Brooks Baker-a man desperately running from his own past. Their destinies and stories are bizarrely intertwined, like a vine of grapes, which is grown on Red Mountain.
