About this product

Product Information

Harlan Singer, a harmonica-playing troubadour, shows up in the Thompson family's yard one morning. He steals their hearts with his music, and their daughter with his charm. Soon he and his fourteen-year-old bride, Sharon, are on the road, two more hobos of the Great Depression, hitchhiking and hopping freights across the Great Plains in search of an old man and the settlement of Harlan's long-standing debt. In this moving, redemptive tale inspired by Oklahoma folk heroes, Rilla Askew continues her exploration of the American story. Harpsong is a novel of love and loss, of adventure and renewal, and of a wayfaring orphan's search for home--all set to the sounds of Harlan's harmonica.

Reviews
"Set in Depression-era Oklahoma and drawing inevitable comparison to The Grapes of Wrath , Askew's novel presents the best and worst of humanity in its depiction of hardscrabble lives lived during the Dust Bowl. Askew's command of language is a pleasure to behold, bringing out the pain and wonder of her story with a bittersweet immediacy." -- Publishers Weekly, "Set in Depression-era Oklahoma and drawing inevitable comparison to The Grapes of Wrath , Askew's novel presents the best and worst of humanity in its depiction of hardscrabble lives lived during the Dust Bowl.
