Jim the Boy
Jim the Boy
It's 1934, and Jim Glass is turning ten in Aliceville, North Carolina. This is a deceptively gentle, nostalgic look at childhood during an era when life was by turns harsh and hopeful. Earley offers an understated, poetic tribute to those families whose pride in and love for one another helped them face hard times.
Both delightful and wise, Jim the Boy brilliantly captures the pleasures and fears of youth at a time when America itself was young and struggling to come into its own.
