Growing up poor in Depression-era South Georgia is hard enough, but Bud is also cursed with a stutter and a birthmark that disfigures his face. His hateful father and amoral mother make life worse still, despite his brothers' efforts to shield him. To survive in body and soul, Bud must discover his strengths and confront the sins of his parents. First, though, he'll need to grasp his own truth: that he can't embrace his future until he comes to terms with his past.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Reading <em>Hardscrabble Road</em> is like discovering T<em>o Kill a Mockingbird </em>when no one else knew about it . . . one day it may also be considered a classic." <strong>--</strong>Jackie K Cooper, author of <em>Memory's Mist</em>, and critic for <em>The Huffington Post</em></p><p>"Bud fights to save his own soul with determination and heart.
