Marriage is preordained, the groom practically predestined. Though it's 1958, southern Minnesota did not see changing roles for women on the horizon. Caught in a time bubble between a world war and the ferment of the 1960's, Emmy doesn't see that she has any say in her life, any choices at all. Only when Emmy's fiance; shows his true colors and forces himself on her does she find the courage to act--falling instead for a forbidden Catholic boy, a boy whose family seems warm and encouraging after the sere Nelson farm life. Not only moving to town and breaking free from her engagement but getting a job on the local newspaper begins to open Emmy's eyes. She discovers that the KKK is not only active in the Midwest but that her family is involved, and her sense of the firm rules she grew up under--and their effect--changes completely. A FIREPROOF HOME FOR THE BRIDE has the charm of detail that will drop readers into its time and place: the home economics class lecture on cuts of meat, the group date to the diner, the small-town movie theater popcorn for a penny. It also has a love story--the wrong love giving way to the right--and most of all the pull of a great main character whose self-discovery sweeps the plot forward. The setting is Kent Haruf, but the heroine is pure Annie Proulx"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Young women $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Minnesota $x Social life and customs $y 20th century $v Fiction. 650 7 $a FICTION / Family Life. $2 bisacsh 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Love stories. $2 gsafd 856 42 $3 Cover image $u http://www.netread.com/jcusers2/bk1388/674/9781250049674/image/lgcover.9781250049674.jpg 941 $a 33 952 $l HQPD845 $d 20240516013827.0 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314041022.0 952 $l UGPF911 $d 20231207021441.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012025746.0 952 $l CNPC792 $d 20220105012332.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722045257.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20200528060357.0 952 $l RFPC397 $d 20200512013800.0 952 $l SSPB104 $d 20200219011418.0 952 $l SRPA104 $d 20200123010428.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110062006.0 952 $l D8PD522 $d 20191211011746.0 952 $l SKPC094 $d 20190504013106.0 952 $l DYPD423 $d 20190413012719.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006083738.0 952 $l NCPC953 $d 20180925021857.0 952 $l DBPE173 $d 20180719024119.0 952 $l NEPC953 $d 20180714033742.0 952 $l DIPB173 $d 20180707022418.0 952 $l DEPA173 $d 20170620160220.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20170418105327.0 952 $l EZPE755 $d 20160408031502.0 952 $l VBPC034 $d 20160407154749.0 952 $l SDPB094 $d 20160314165320.0 952 $l EKPC715 $d 20151208114553.0 952 $l TXPC862 $d 20151111014253.0 952 $l YWPD162 $d 20151106012136.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20150926032155.0 952 $l TGPD826 $d 20150901011017.0 952 $l OGPC877 $d 20150702020852.0 952 $l EBPE325 $d 20150626010221.0 952 $l VFPB334 $d 20150519011848.0 952 $l SUPC124 $d 20150325010325.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=41214AD6D2B411E48F5C7E9FDAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
