Where nothing is long ago / Virginia Sorensen / 213 pages
This 1955 book is from the Newbery author of Miracles on Maple Hill. It is a memoir of sorts as it is a group of stories from the author's childhood growing up a Mormon in a small Utah town in the 1920's and 1930's. It was very interesting and each chapter could stand alone as a short story. Although she writes from her child point of view, she has insight into the time period, the Mormon religion, and women. It is quite good and, unfortunately, the last copy with no other books by her in the district.
