Inhaltsangabe
With the 1924 publication of Country People, Ruth Suckow established herself as one of the early 20th century’s premier chroniclers of American rural life. This novel follows the Kaetterhenrys, a German-American clan that works to build both a farm and family, navigating the tensions between individual desires and community expectations. In a narrative of exquisite observations that spans generations, Suckow offers a nuanced portrait of the land and its people. Following its initial publication, Country People was praised by H. L. Mencken as “judiciously planned and expertly executed. Miss Suckow, indeed, is extraordinary among writers of fiction.” The centenary edition (with a new critical introduction) offers another opportunity to appreciate Suckow’s craft as well as the rural lives she brought to life one hundred years ago.
