 The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store

by James McBride

Riverhead Books/PRH


    This is a wonder - a book that brings you quickly into another world, that is our world in 1939 Pottstown, PA. You will fall in love with these characters and they will break your heart while still  giving you hope. Don't miss the acknowledgments at the end - this section will make you cry, even if none of the rest has.

    A brilliant novel.


If you'd like to know more about, or own this book (you will want it), please contact your local independent bookstore or this wonderful place bookshop.org
