English Creek

The Montana Trilogy, Book 1

De: Ivan Doig

Narrado por: Scott Sowers

Part of Ivan Doig’s acclaimed Montana trilogy, English Creek revolves around Jick McCaskill, a 14-year-old growing up in 1930s Montana. This incandescent coming-of-age tale dramatizes the climatic events of one summer that inevitably mark Jick’s awakening from childhood to adulthood. Through his eyes we see those nearest and dearest to him at a turning point - "where all four of our lives made their bend" - and discover along with him his own connection to the land, to history, and to the deep-fathomed mysteries of one's kin and one's self.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Sheer magic...simply a national treasure." ( USA Today)

A favorite Doig tale

This may be my favorite among all the Ivan Doig stories. Told from the perspective of a 14 year old boy who lived the life in the 1930s Montana mountains. A great story well told.

Long but interesting story of life in the 30’s and 40’s out west.

Enjoyed the narrator and all the little tales of family life and the way things were.

Making a living on Montana’s prairie.

Very entertaining story with dry humor of a family living on Montana’s prairie. Great character development!

Good story

There are places where the action moves slowly but if you hang in there you’ll be rewarded by a great sort. I would recommend this book

Doig!

My favorite author. I'm listening to these again after 25 years....and picking it more information.
