Description:
The Copeland family of Listre, North Carolina, goes back a long ì
way. Meredith Copeland's father, Albert, keeps a sort of written ì
family record in some notebooks he bought to log the flights of ì
his home-built floatplane, a project Albert first undertook in ì
1956, when his children were just kids. Now that the kids are ì
grown -- Thatcher has a son of his own, Meredith and Mark are ì
back from Vietnam, and Noralee is off dating hippies -- the ì
notebooks are thick with the floatplane's failures to lift off ì
and bulging with color Polaroids of the wisteria blossoms near ì
the family plot, favorite family dogs, Thatcher and Bliss's ì
wedding, records of Noralee's height and weight, a diagram of the ì
graveyard, a newspaper story about wild-child Meredith's many ì
backfired schemes. This novel travels back in time more than one ì
hundred years, to the Copeland bride who first planted the ì
wisteria by the back porch that would take over the surrounding ì
woods, and then down to the present again to show how even though ì
times change, people are pretty much the same.
This is a used book and is in Good condition.
