Beautiful and tragic

Written with a lovely voice and an unadulterated observation of the hard life of the times. Marvelously illustrates the differences between those with more learning and opportunity and those who, simply by circumstance, are stuck in far, small, and more primitive ways. The struggle between hanging on to old beliefs and being able to learn is poignantly told. A little repetetive at times, but Kent tells a beautiful, sad story.
