Tobacco Road



Tobacco Road by Erskine Caldwell


Tobacco road is the story of doomed people, fated to starve because the land is no longer fertile. To Jeeter, stuborn and hopeful, the land was where he was born - and where he would die along with remnants of his family he lived in squalor without prospect or purpose. A joke yet not without dignity; rotting physically and morally.

Humorous in narrative yet sad in content, this Caldwell classic rates five stars*****.
