By
This review is from: Okie Chronicles (Paperback)
A novel in poetry. The life of several generations of Oklahomans beautifully rendered. Harrison creates fully realized characters and delves deeply into the major human issues of love, death and the survival of the human spirit.
Quiet yet deeply moving.

True American Grit With A Splash of Colorful Dust,
By Kate McCullough "Kate McCullough" (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Okie Chronicles (Paperback)
Ms. Harrison returns in her second published collection of poetry, Okie Chronicles, to weave tales of charm, wit, adventure and spunk. Okie Chronicles follows the lives of several Oklahomans before, during, and in the difficult times after the Dust Bowl of the 1930s. This book illuminates the history of the American southwest in poignant and clear detail, with visual imagery and captivatingly real stories of everyday life. Finally, there is a collection of poems worthy of being called historically accurate, while still gripping and fascinating. If you love the detail and fluidity of prose, you will love Okie Chronicles. If you are an ardent fan of poetry of the highest standards, this book is also ideal. If you have a love of history and a respect for learning how we became who we are today, then Okie Chronicles is the best you can get.
