Life Here On Earth - Paperback

by Nila D. Bond (Author)

In 1973 Southeast Texas, the home phone with the rotary dial hangs on the kitchen wall, Coca-Cola comes in chilled glass bottles, and Tom T. Hall is on the radio singing about old dogs and children and watermelon wine. This is the world of Verleen Jackson, a 75-year-old widow living alone on a small farm in the rural countryside, and despite her age, she is fiercely independent and spunky, following her own path as she sees fit. Her days are predictably routine with chickens, a milk cow, and a vegetable garden that need tending, until one spring day when she discovers something bizarre in the back yard...something strange...yet wonderfully amazing...
