📱 eBook en inglés FRAGILE BEASTS

Growing up in hard-scrabble coal country with a drunk father and a runaway mother hasnt been easy for teen brothers Kyle and Klint. And when their dad smashes his truck and dies after a few too many beers, the boys are shocked that their often-absent mother plans to take them back to her new home out West. After all, their mom hasnt cared for Kyle and Klint for years. She still doesnt. Their mom quickly hands the boys over to 75-year-old Candace Jack, a curmudgeon with an acidic tongue who surprises herself in agreeing to take the boys. Living together isnt easy, but the boys discover that Candace has a tragic, passionate past and the three discarded souls help each other to heal. With Tawni ODells trademark tenderness, vivid sense of place, and complex characters, Fragile Beasts is a beautifully crafted novel told from two very different points of view: a fourteen-year-old boys and a seventy-five-year-old womans. Its a wonderfully touching novel with two fascinating narrators who will wholly capture readers hearts.
