beberapa hari belakangan gua iseng2 browsing di periplus, bookdepo, open trolley dan books & beyond buat mencari2 buku2 yang menarik hati sekaligus membandingkan harga karena terkadang selisih harga antara satu online shop dengan yang lainnya itu lumayan bangets boo :p and hari ini gua menemukan dua buku yang menarik hasil search dengan keyword "the yearling", buku yang lumayan berkesan pas gua baca :D

and gua menemukan 2 buku lain yang ditulis oleh pengarang "the yearling".

 

 Originally published in 1942, "Cross Creek" has become a classic in modern American literature. For the millions of readers raised on "The Yearling, " here is the story of Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings's experiences in the remote Florida hamlet of Cross Creek, where she lived for thirteen years. From the daily labors of managing a seventy-two-acre orange grove to bouts with runaway pigs and a succession of unruly farmhands, Rawlings describes her life at the Creek with humor and spirit. Her tireless determination to overcome the challenges of her adopted home in the Florida backcountry, her deep-rooted love of the earth, and her genius for character and description result in a most delightful and heartwarming memoir.

 "The Classic Book on Southern Cooking" First published in 1942, "Cross Creek Cookery" was compiled by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings at the request of readers who wanted to recreate the luscious meals described in "Cross Creek" -- her famous memoir of life in a Florida hamlet. Lovers of old-fashioned, down-home cooking will treasure the recipes for Grits, Hush-Puppies, Florida Fried Fish, Orange Fluff, and Utterly Deadly Southern Pecan Pie. For more adventuresome palates, there are such unusual dishes as Minorcan Gopher Stew, Coot Surprise, Alligator-Tail Steak, Mayhaw Jelly, and Chef Huston's Cream of Peanut Soup. Spiced with delightful anecdotes and lore, "Cross Creek Cookery" guides the reader through the rich culinary heritage of the deep tidal South with a loving regard for the rituals of cooking and eating. Anyone who longs for food -- and writing -- that warms the heart will find ample portions of both in this classic cookbook.
