{"product_id":"small-town-kid-9780975144237","title":"Small Town Kid","description":"\u003cp\u003eSmall Town Kid is a poetry anthology that illuminates the experience of regional life as a child, in an insular town during the late 1960s to the mid-1970s, remote from the more worldly places where life really happens, in a time before the internet and the online existence of social media.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e It is a time when a small town boy can walk a mile to school and back every day, and hunt rabbits with his dog in the hours of freedom before sundown. He can hoard crackers for bonfire night and blow up the deputy school master's mailbox in an act of joyous rebellion.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e It is a time when a small town teenager will ride fourteen miles on a bicycle for his first experience of girls, and of love. A time when migrating from a foreign country to a small town means his family will always feel that they are strangers, while visitors to the town are treated like an invading host.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e It is also the remembrance of tragedy for inexperienced friends driving on narrow country roads.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e This collection of poems and stories shares the type of childhood that has mostly disappeared in contemporary times. Come and revisit it here, in the pages of a Small Town Kid.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Frank Prem\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wild Arancini Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/22\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.33lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.22d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780975144237\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003ePrem, Frank:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Frank Prem has been a storytelling poet for forty years.
