That was all of it. A grace so ordinary there was no reason at all to remember it. Yet I have never across the forty years since it was spoken forgotten a single word. 520 $a New Bremen, Minnesota, 1961. The Twins were playing their debut season, ice-cold root beers were selling out at the soda counter of Halderson s Drugstore, and Hot Stuff comic books were a mainstay on every barbershop magazine rack. It was a time of innocence and hope for a country with a new, young president. But for thirteen-year-old Frank Drum it was a grim summer in which death visited frequently and assumed many forms. Accident. Nature. Suicide. Murder. 520 $a Frank begins the season preoccupied with the concerns of any teenage boy, but when tragedy unexpectedly strikes his family which includes his Methodist minister father; his passionate, artistic mother; Juilliard-bound older sister; and wise-beyond-his-years kid brother he finds himself thrust into an adult world full of secrets, lies, adultery, and betrayal, suddenly called upon to demonstrate a maturity and gumption beyond his years. 520 $a Told from Frank s perspective forty years after that fateful summer, Ordinary Grace is a brilliantly moving account of a boy standing at the door of his young manhood, trying to understand a world that seems to be falling apart around him. It is an unforgettable novel about discovering the terrible price of wisdom and the enduring grace of God. 650 $a Fiction $x Audiobooks. $y Mystery/Suspense $z FICTION / Mystery & Detective / Historical 600 $a Fiction-Mystery & Detective $x Books on CD $y Historical Mystery 008 s2015 941 $a 1 952 $l EYPC755 $d 20240117011722.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3EB15334B50611EEB233F11920ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
