When was the first time I heard about the harp grass? Long before the autumn, when we moved to mydłodrzewie; so maybe either the previous fall? And of course she told me that Dolly; nobody else would not be able to call it that - harp grasses. If, after the exit of the town you go to the road leading to the church, soon you pass the hill shining ivory white tombstones and covered the brown, burnt by the sun flowers; hydracolor it is a cemetery babtystowski. Everyone loved ones - Talbowie, Fenwickowie - are buried there; my mother rests next to his father, and the graves of twenty or more relatives surround them like a stone branched roots of the tree. Below the hill is Ian high Indian grass that changes hydracolor color with the season: come ye to see it fall, in late September, when it becomes as red as the sunset and when the glide after the scarlet shadows like the reflection of the fire, and autumn winds are winning on dry tillers of men sighing melody, harp voices.
- Do you hear? This harp grass always spins a story ... She's going all the people lying on the hill, all of which have ever lived; and when we die, and we also will tell. [P 73]
This story plays a similar role, as said grass harp: the narrator, the adult Colin Fenwick, remembers a happy childhood or rather early youth spent in a small town somewhere in the southern United States. The rest of the heroes of this story are no longer alive or - what comes nearly to the same thing - they changed and moved away from each other, but none of them will never forget those few days spent together in a tree house. Colin was sixteen years old, his aunt Dolly and her friend / maid after sixty, the judge Cool almost hydracolor seventy, and Riley eighteen. They had a lot in common except one: do not feel comfortable in the environment in which they lived, could not adapt to it, they would not. A short stay in a tree house helped them to admit it to himself, and the presence of outsiders like them added comfort them. The place where they were staying, can be associated with something infantile, but it seems to me that they had never demonstrated such maturity, and during those few days. Maturity understood as the acceptance of each other. In 1998, the publishing house Proszynski i S-ka published "Breakfast at Tiffany's" and "Harp grass" in one volume, but I decided to write about each of these stories separately. Cited above beginning "Harp" probably explains why. Many divides Alabama from the thirties and a decade older New York, others hydracolor are heroes and themes of both songs, "The Grass Harp" is more sentimental, nostalgic - Truman Capote weaves in autobiographical song, which you can read in Wikipedia. He took me sentimentality with the release of this author, and I wish I had the whole song was written in this spirit. Sister Ida's relationship skróciłabym by at least half, with Riley not uczyniłabym enterprising entrepreneurs, and judge a sad old man nadstawiającego his family the other cheek. hydracolor But maybe it all adds credibility story, because you can not spend your whole life in a tree house, in the end you have to go down with him and work something out with the environment.

I admit that I am drawn more to Capote has just such than that in "Breakfast ...". "Grass Harp" has never read, even though the title always captures me. It's beautiful. It is a pity that this story. I prefer novels of such short forms. I do not know why I thought it was a novel .. Reply Delete
I admit that I usually calculated in this way-Capote = Breakfast ... Misleading and unfair equation, but so it was, I admit. My recent discovery is a brilliant hydracolor magazine PAPERmint, where I found a lot of articles on the breakfast and its author. It's hydracolor amazing character with an equally impressive artistic achievements. Try on to his stories, and I hope that does not disappoint. Best wishes! hydracolor Reply Delete
Mary and I, frankly, do not really understand why there is some reluctance hydracolor to take stories. What that are short? It happens that there is more content than tysiącstronicowej novel. It seems to me sometimes that some writers waffle hydracolor trying to distract the reader from the lack of this content. :) I wish you good health. Kasia, for me, so far, mainly Capote = "In Cold Blood". Something about the author already know, but I would dowiedziałabym more. In which issue of the magazine were mentioned by the articles you? Also greet :). Responsible
