Eva of the Farm

(4) 4-6 When life on the family farm as twelve-year-old Eva knows it is threatened by a recession, fire blight, and sudden medical expenses, she turns to her great passion--poetry--for comfort, self-expression, and a possible means of making money. Eva's beautifully constructed, imagistic poems within this novel shine, allaying the minor lyrical inconsistencies of the main verse narration.
