Synopsis

Excerpt from The Youngest World: A Novel of the Frontier

The woman stood at the sink, plunging the dishes into the soapy water with an air of resignation. The man sat at the kitchen table. He ate moodily, slanting his black eyelashes toward his plate.

It was a Sunday morning, and therefore no pickers would be working in the strawberry fields which sur rounded the lonely house. In the nomadic life that they led, Gabriel Thain and his wife spent most of their Sabbaths thus: Arlene wrote to her mother down in Sacramento, mended Gail's working clothes, and then brought him a pillow from their bed when he threw himself on the sofa to read the Seattle news papers.
