Larry Cook, a proud and exacting farmer, whose family has lived on this land for four generations, unexpectedly decides to retire and turn over his valuable holdings to his three daughters. For Ginny and Rose, who live on the farm with their husbands, the gift makes sense - a reward for years of hard work, a challenge to make the farm even more successful. But the youngest, Caroline, a Des Moines lawyer, flatly rejects the idea, and in anger her father cuts her out - setting off an explosive series of events that will leave none of them unchanged. A classic story of contemporary American life, A Thousand Acres strikes at the very heart of what it means to be a father, a daughter, a family. 586 $a Pulitzer Prize, Fiction, 1992. 586 $a National Book Critics Circle Award for fiction, 1991 650 0 $a Inheritance and succession $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Parent and adult child $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Fathers and daughters $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Aging parents $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Family farms $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Farm life $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Sisters $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Iowa $v Fiction. 651 4 $a Iowa $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Aging parents. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00800360 650 7 $a Family farms. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00920335 650 7 $a Farm life. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00921052 650 7 $a Fathers and daughters. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00921890 650 7 $a Inheritance and succession. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00973371 650 7 $a Parent and adult child. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01053304 650 7 $a Sisters. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01119758 651 7 $a Iowa. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205835 655 0 $a Domestic fiction. 655 4 $a Domestic fiction. $b lcsh. 655 4 $a Allegories. $b gsafd. 655 7 $a Allegories. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726523 655 7 $a Domestic fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726589 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Allegories. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Allegories. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Domestic fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Domestic fiction. $2 unknown 776 08 $i Online version: $a Smiley, Jane. $t Thousand acres. $b 1st ed. $d New York : Knopf : Distributed by Random House, 1991 $w (OCoLC)555807821 856 41 $3 Sample text $u http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/samples/random041/91052720.html 856 42 $3 Contributor biographical information $u http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0703/91052720-b.html 856 42 $3 Publisher description $u http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/description/random041/91052720.html 856 41 $3 Sample text $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/samples/random041/91052720.html 856 42 $3 Publisher description $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/description/random041/91052720.html 941 $a 4 $n 1 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20240112140930.0 $n 10 952 $l GZPE631 $d 20220329163420.0 $n 13 952 $l GPPC641 $d 20210621115208.0 $n 5 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20210527084835.0 $n 25 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3234EF14AC3311EB98A411E3203FDB2A 994 $a C0 $b IOZInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
