The Marrowbone Marble Company Reprint edition

?M. Glenn Taylor?s plain spoken eloquence on labor, race, and war recalls the voices in Studs Terkel?s inspired Working. The Marrowbone Marble Company is a novel of stirring clarity and power.?

Author M. Glenn Taylor was nominated for the National Book Critic?s Circle Award for his novel The Ballad of Trenchmouth Taggart. Taylor returns spectacularly with The Marrowbone Marble Company, a sweeping story set against the changing landscape of post-World War II America that recalls The Story of Edgar Sawtelle and the early lyrical work of Cormac McCarthy. A masterwork of Southern fiction that the National Book Award-winning author of Spartina, JohnCasey, calls, ?a terrific rough-and-tumble novel,? The Marrowbone Marble Company is a gift from a truly exhilarating American voice.
