"Ms. Reynolds's poetic gifts are uncommonly powerful." --The New York Times

"Reynolds . . . is a gifted writer with a deceptively simple style and a keen ear for dialogue." --The Boston Globe

"The newest and most exciting voice to emerge in contemporary Southern fiction." --The San Francisco Bay Guardian

"Reynolds is in top form with these beautifully drawn, flawed characters." --School Library Journal

"Simple prose rich with subtext, convincing dialogue, and a fascinating protagonist combine to produce a heartstring-plucker that's explicit, tender, sad, and hopeful." --Publishers Weekly

Reseña del editor:

#1 New York Times bestselling author Sheri Reynolds delivers an emotionally moving novel of Finch Nobles, a girl severely burned as a child, who later discovers she can hear the voices of the dead.

After sustaining terrible burns from a household accident as a young girl, Finch Nobles refuses the pity of her hometown. The brave and feisty loner finds comfort in visiting her father’s cemetery, where she soon discovers that she can hear the voices of those buried underground. When she begins to speak to them, their answers echo around her in a remarkable chorus of regrets, explanations, and insights. A wonderfully wrought amalgam of Steinbeck, Faulkner, Spoon River Anthology, and Our Town, A Gracious Plenty is a masterful tale not soon forgotten.
