Naked Ears

Naked Ears portrays a time in our history when life was simpler. It views the Great Depression through the eyes of a young girl. Life in rural Arkansas in the 1930s had all the elements of life in any society - happiness, sadness, dreams, frustrations, humor, friendship. Farm families depended on the land for their livelihood, and neighbors were always willing to lend a helping hand. They had no electricity, no plumbing, and no telephones. Trips to the doctor were rare and cars were few. The main means of transportation were wagons, horseback, and walking. Still, we don't miss what we have never had, and the author did not remember more prosperous times.
