Produktbeschreibung
Sunlight patch explores the tension between isolation and transformation through the journey of a young man emerging from the rugged quiet of mountain life into a world shaped by education, ambition, and shifting values. The story examines how aspiration can challenge inherited ways of living, revealing the costs and rewards of change. It contrasts the rawness of wilderness existence with the structured expectations of civilized society, drawing attention to how identity is reshaped by exposure to new ideas and social interactions. The narrative reflects on the courage it takes to step beyond the familiar, especially when one's origins are marked by hardship and restraint. The natural setting functions as both comfort and limitation, while the arrival of new relationships introduces questions of loyalty, personal growth, and the influence of knowledge. Rather than idealizing either world, the book explores the friction between tradition and progress, offering a thoughtful meditation on what it means to rise with integrity in the face of unfamiliar opportunity.
Autorenporträt
Credo Fitch Harris was an American journalist, novelist, and radio station manager whose work reflected both the literary and technological transitions of the early 20th century. Born in 1874 and based in Kentucky, Harris contributed to regional literature while also playing a role in the emerging field of broadcast media. He managed WHAS, a prominent Louisville radio station, during a period of rapid development in American radio. His writing frequently explored Kentucky life, particularly in novels such as Toby, which was later adapted into the silent film One Dollar Bid. Harris's literary range extended beyond fiction, as seen in his travel book Motor Rambles in Italy and his autobiographical Microphone Memoirs, which detailed the early days of radio. His novels often dealt with identity, place, and the intersections between rural experience and broader social changes. Though not widely known today, Harris's combined legacy in literature and media marks him as a contributor to both Southern storytelling and the foundational years of American broadcasting. He died in 1956.
