Under The Tree

Bag om Under The Tree

Under The Tree is a novel written by Elizabeth Madox Roberts, first published in 1940. The story is set in rural Kentucky, where the protagonist, a young girl named Cassie, lives with her family. Cassie's father is a farmer who struggles to make ends meet, and her mother is often sick. Cassie spends much of her time under a large tree on their property, where she daydreams and reflects on her life.As Cassie grows older, she becomes more aware of the poverty and hardship that surrounds her. She dreams of escaping the small town and making a better life for herself. However, she is torn between her desire for a better future and her love for her family and the land that they call home.Throughout the novel, Roberts explores themes of poverty, family, and the connection between people and the land. The story is told in a lyrical and poetic style, with vivid descriptions of the natural world and the characters' inner thoughts and emotions.Under The Tree is a timeless tale that resonates with readers today, as it portrays the struggles and hopes of ordinary people in rural America. It is a beautifully written novel that captures the essence of a place and a time, and the human spirit that endures through hardship and adversity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
