After Robert McEvoy loses his leg in an accident-- rumored to have been caused by his nemesis James Gregg, the son of the mill's founder-- the angry and bitter young man deserts his job and family. Two years later, Robert returns. His mother is dying, and his father, the mill's gardener, is confined indoors working the factory line. These intertwined events stoke the slow burning rage McEvoy has long carried, a fury that erupts in a terrible act of violence that ultimately consumes the Gregg family and his own."--Amazon.com 500 $a Made into an acclaimed film broadcast on PBS in 1976, The Gardener's Son received two Emmy Award nominations and was screened at the Berlin and Edinburgh Film Festivals. 650 0 $a Gardner's son (Motion picture) 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231018025609.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20141223011557.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9D543A4C8A7111E4949CD2DEDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b BUPInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
