Promise Supermarket by Elizabeth Quinlan
As consciously and effectively as a short novel, Promise Supermarketdepicts the life of a family moving ever downward, from a house on ahill to a one-room cellar apartment. . . . One of the marvels of this bookis that Elizabeth Quinlan is able to depict the immense difficulties of herchildhood with both quiet understatement and clear detail, allowing usto share her experience with the deep involvement that fully inhabitinga new literary space, however bleak, may give. . . . The magic of PromiseSupermarket is to turn the power of visual imagination and memoryinto unforgettable stories--to "grow treasures" out of what was plantedin the treeless ground of a difficult but tenderly remembered childhood.--Martha Collins, from the foreword| SKU | Unavailable |
