Von Händler/Antiquariat, Better World Books.
In this collection of essays, most first published in Springhouse Magazine, Paul Stroble recalls the places and experiences of a small town childhood. Growing up in Vandalia, Illinois at the beginning of the interstate era, Stroble finds his memories enriched by local history, philosophy, landscape geography, and his awareness of family heritage and divine grace as he travels familiar landscapes. He muses over a variety of experiences such as one's first car, mowing the lawn, shopping downtown, going barefoot, sitting impatiently at a railroad crossing, visiting gas stations, going to church, doing genealogy, visiting the family cemetery, and recalling a beloved, fire-destroyed house. "Place is a mirror held up to our lives each time we return to our first homes," he writes, "but place also directly influences us as we move along our lives' journeys. Joy, sorrow, humor, contradictions, and love join together to form a multifaceted, emotional response to place." Traveling through his favorite places, he also realizes, "I've become the nostalgic nuisance I once thought my parents were. Even better, I've incorporated their nostalgia into my own.", Paperback, Label: Published by the Author, Published by the Author, Product group: Book, Published: 2000-01-01, Studio: Published by the Author, Sales rank: 787684.
