Left to raise themselves in a small coal-mining town in Tennessee, Anneth and Easter, two very different sisters--one destined for the glittering world of Nashville, the other a devout Pentecostal--struggle to come to terms with the death of their mother as their long and difficult journey brings them back to their origins and to each other. By the author of Clay's Quilt. Reader's Guide included. Reprint. 30,000 first printing.

I‘m so glad to have discovered Silas House this year. The way he writes about families and grief just sucks me in to his stories. Perfect for summer reading- I‘ll be searching around for more of his books soon. #BacklistReadathon

I like the #adventrecommends idea. Day 1- This is the first Silas House book I read. It has two other books that connect with it-A Parchment of Leaves and Clay‘s Quilt. I heard him speak at our local women‘s march & decided it was time to read his books. Silas is a Kentucky writer; he teaches & is very involved in the Ky community. @emilyrose_x #wintergames #thefilthyanimals @Clwojick @StayCurious
