ISBN: 9781565123076.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn a bone-chilling New Years Day, when all the mountain roads are slick with ice, Clays mother, Anneth, insists on leaving her husband. She packs her things, and with three-year-old Clay in tow, they inch their way toward her hometown along the treacherous mountain roads.\nThat journey ends in the death of Clays mother. Its a day that comes to haunt her only son, whos left without a family and a history. This is the story of how Clay Sizemore, a coal miner in love with his town but unsure of his place within it, finds a family to call his own.\nAnd its the story of the people who become part of the life he shapes: Aunt Easter, always filled with a sense of foreboding and bound to her faith above all; Uncle Paul, quietly producing quilt after quilt; Dreama, beautiful and flighty; Evangeline, the untameable daughter of a famous gospel singer; and Alma, the fiddler whose song wends its way into Clays heart. Together, they all help Clay to fashion a quilt of a life from what treasured pieces are around him.\nAuthentic and moving, Clays Quilt is both the story of a young mans journey and of Appalachian people struggling to hold on to their heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Algonquin Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44945528455221,"sku":"ByrdShop_1565123077","price":34.37,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781565123076_0a411f44-7244-40d4-bed9-bb2a44e8fe38.jpg?v=1778711181","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/clays-quilt-9781565123076","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
