Clear Springs: A Family Story by Bobbie Ann Mason

4.0

I have to admit that I am a huge Bobbie Ann Mason fan. I didn't realize, however, when I picked up this book that it's a memoir and not fiction. The story is about three generations of her family growing up in Kentucky. It was a fascinating story about how times have changed and how rural life impacts your view of the world. The stories she tells going back to the turn of the 20th century are fascinating. The depictions are very vivid, including her own child and young adulthood.

It was a treat to step into the life of a favorite author.
