Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

One Night in WintersetA Story of RedemptionCURT ILES"In the end, it's always about the journey."In the warm storytelling style loved by his readers, Louisiana author Curt Iles weaves a wonderful short story of adversity, perseverance, love, and redemption.Told through the eyes of a ninety-six-year-old man, Luther Perkins, as he recalls his boyhood journey across America during the Great Depression.His story begins in the Louisiana Pineywoods, from where he leaves home and becomes part of the huge migration of young men torn from their roots and families. Perkins travels across America, roaming the roads and rails seeking work and a sense of belonging.That search ends on a snowy December night in a Midwestern town called Winterset.A faded family photograph, scribbled with a street address, seems his last ray of hope.What happens when he knocks on the door will shape the rest of his life.He expects rejection, but instead finds redemption."Some journeys are measured in miles or footsteps; others can only be measured in the heart."AUTHOR PHOTOShort BioCurt Iles is the author of seventeen books celebrating the unique culture, good people, and natural beauty of his native Louisiana. An eighth-generation resident of Dry Creek, Louisiana, he and his wife, DeDe, now live in Alexandria near their nine grandchildren.Learn more at www.creebank.net
