During the last year of her life, my grandmother started writing a story about a young girl named Neva. This book is my way of finishing it. It's a coming-of-age story about family, high school sweethearts, and growing up in the year 1940. Gregory Austin McConnell is a writer, filmmaker, and creator of web video. His previous work includes the award-winning film Voicemails from Strangers. He has produced numerous video essays, documentaries, short stories, diverse educational work, and a general oddball assortment of viral videos that have entertained millions on YouTube.
A nice story about a much simpler times. Though the book itself is a bit too simple with not many interesting ideas to make it more memorable.
The author was adapting a very short story his grandmother made, so I can't be that harsh.
