Voices of a Place
Social and Literary Essays from the Other California
|
|
What is life like in the Other California, the regions of the Golden State where toil not tennis characterizes each day? This collection of ten essays explores blue-collar existence in out-of-the-way places and suggests unique textures in California's life, their savor and sorrow. Acknowledgment is made to the editors of the Nation, the Californians, Bakersfield Lifestyle, Western American Literature, Pacific Discovery, and California English, where some of the essays in this collection originally appeared. |
