Rainy Days and Starry Nights: Growing Up in the South Texas Brush Country ReviewLois Zook Wauson grew up with her 7 brothers and sisters on a scortched farm in Texas. Without electricity or other conveniences, her family found peace, togetherness, and solid values-- even amid the trials of what basically amounts to subsistence farming. The writing is simple and straightfoward, and really puts the image in one's head... I especially enjoyed one moment, when Lois had grown up and moved into a Texas suburb of San Antonio. It was just before television became common. All of the families on her block would lie out on their lawns at night on blankets, kids and parents mixing, real community. She shows how airconditioning and TV crushed that togetherness and led to the kind of suburban dislocation we see today. Having spent a year as a child in Floresville, TX I was especially interested in the book, but it will appeal to others wishing for a glimise of the joys, sorrows, and rich paradoxes of mid 20th century rural American life.Rainy Days and Starry Nights: Growing Up in the South Texas Brush Country Overview
