A shell-shocked veteran haunted by the carnage of the First World War abandons his family in the Great Depression and goes on the road in search of relief from his nightmares - and returns to find his family have become victims of violence. *** "FACE THE WINTER NAKED is a gorgeously written and evocative novel of an earlier economic crisis: the Great Depression. Readers looking for a stunning read, intelligent and emotional on every level, will not be disappointed." ~ Lauren Baratz-Logsted, author of Crazy Beautiful and The Education of Bet *** "Bonnie Turner's Face the Winter Naked is a beautifully written tale of strength, hope, love, and despair. Within the pages of this book, the era of the Great Depression unfolds into sharply focused reality, and the people who were impacted the most by that time of financial desperation come to life. Ms. Turner is an excellent storyteller, and I found myself completely immersed in her narrative." (Bobby) BookWenches www.bookwenches.com
