Kathryn Tucker Windham
Acerca de esta escucha
Combining her vivid characterization, her affection for the South and its people, her well-seasoned humor, and her distinctive diction (which is clear and mellow as the best distilled liquor), these stories capture something of Southern culture that is in danger of extinction. Just perhaps, by listening to Ms. Windham, some may remember, celebrate, and carry on in ways that will allow future generations of children to have happy memories of families and communities sustained by virtue and tradition.
©1986 Kathryn Tucker Windham (P)1986 Kathryn Tucker WindhamReseñas editoriales
Selma, Alabama native Kathryn Tucker Windham shows the winsome storytelling ability that gained her national attention on NPR's All Things Considered in these reflections on her childhood. Whether she's reminiscing on piano lessons or the early morning sounds of birdsong and vendors selling vegetables, Windham's Southern drawl creates a winning specificity to her anecdotes, enhancing the authenticity and details along with the incidental sounds that accompany her stories. Grits is a warm collection, and a testament to Windham's love of the simpler days spent growing up in the South.

Short, sweet, worth the listen to learn what times were like!
Good story teller, esp story about piano lessons. Like hearing about past days. Makes me realize how easy our life is though I think we don’t build as good of memories with others.

Beautiful
I purchased all the available copies of this author’s audiobooks. They’re all very short but so good. Love listening to her accent and stories of the South from many decades ago. Excellent.
