Summer Days at the Five and Dime - Paperback
Description
by Annette L. Grunseth (Author)
Summer Days at the Five and Dime is a memoir in verse about growing up in
post-World War II central Wisconsin, when summer days stretched wide and
children belonged to the streets, the woods, and each other. Set in 1950s and 1960s
small-town America, this coming-of-age story captures a Midwestern childhood
shaped by freedom, family, and friendship. As the poems move into adulthood
and aging, memory reveals resilience, gratitude, and the enduring pull of place. For
readers who cherish nostalgic memoir, women's life writing, Midwestern memoir,
coming-of-age stories, and baby boomer childhood refl ections, this lyrical poetry
memoir explores how we begin and how we carry those beginnings forward.
