Another Part of the House

First published in 1970, "Another Part of the House" is a simple, direct, intimate story of family life in a small Texas town during the Depression. Told by 10-year-old Larry Morrison, it reflects Larry's uncertainty as he sees the security of his family--mother, father, and 15 year-old brother, Tad--threatened by immediate forces such as his father's ne'er-do-well brother, Uncle Calvin, and by larger, more serious adversaries--the Depression, the drought, the dust and, most incomprehensible of all, death. How the family deals with them while preserving its own strength and unity is the story.
