Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. It is 1925, and the little town of Humbar is just getting by, like most Midwestern towns of the day. Some of its citizens are fairly well-off for the time, others live basically just day to day.The biggest threat the town faces is from the dam at Dagone Canyon, which periodically overflows during heavy rains. Steep hills create floodwaters so powerful that drowned livestock have been swept through the lower parts of the town. It turns out that Dagone Canyon's flooding is a metaphor, and a harbinger, of the national disaster called the Great Depression, that would befall the town in a very few short years.Into this time is born Etta. From idyllic beginnings, born to loving parents, the girl is quickly thrust into a set of tragedies that would eventually consume her, and pull Etta Summer down into deep depression-into the winter of her life.The reader will become completely engaged in following this title character, and will be rooting for her to find the strength to leave her dark season behind. This story follows Humbar, and Etta, into the dust bowl era, and graphically illustrates how the town and its citizens deal with economic and climatic events that were quite beyond their control.Follow the lives of the Beau family, particularly young Billy Beau, whose strength of character as a young man acts as the catalyst that aids those whose lives are falling apart. As one townsperson put it, "Billy is one of the finest young men this town has ever produced." Ultimately, Billy's patience, strength and endurance are put to the ultimate test when an unforeseen tragedy strikes. His wife, Etta, is very angry and all out of love. The author, Daniel Chavez, Sr., in Color Me Vengefully Heartbroke, graphically depicts the struggles, and the joys, of Midwestern rural life in the Depression era. This item is printed on demand.
