In this coming-of-age story, Porter Osbourne Jr. is a precocious, sensitive, and rambunctious boy trying to make it through adolescence during the Depression. On a red-clay farm in Georgia, he learns all there is to know about cotton-chopping, hog-killing, watermelon-thumping, and mule-handling. School provides a quick course in practical joking, schoolboy crushes, athletic glory, and clandestine sex. But it is Porter's family-- his genteel, patient mother, his swarm of cousins, his snuff-dipping grandmother, and, most of all, his beloved though flawed father--who teaches Porter the painful truths about growing up strong enough to run with the horsemen. \"The writing is elegant, reflective, and amused. Mr. Sams is a storyteller sure of his audience . . . gifted with perfect timing.\"--The New York Times Book Review \"Remarkable both for its humor and its sustained and detailed picture of a mischievous Southern farmboy's life during the Great Depression.\"--The Washington Post\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48662232957163,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":43.94,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9780140072747-1.jpg?v=1781607268","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/products\/9780140072747","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
