Titre : Under this unbroken sky Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Shandi MITCHELL, Auteur Editeur : Harper Perennial Année de publication : 2010 Importance : 346 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-06-177403-4 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : 823 Fiction Résumé : An immigrant Ukrainian family suffers unrelenting hardship on the tundra of late 1930s western Canada in this grim frontier tale. Thrown in prison for two years for helping himself to some of his own grain after defaulting on a homesteading contract, Ukrainian immigrant Theo Mykolayenko must deal with his nearly destitute wife and children. His oldest son helps to plow and plant fields owned by Theo's sister, Anna, who is married to Stefan, a wayward and violent military man. Theo's long-suffering wife, Maria, is tireless in caring for her family, nurturing the garden that feeds them and mending every stitch of clothing they wear. Meanwhile, unhappy Anna, pregnant with a child she does not want, is beguiled by the howling coyotes that surround the homestead at night. The extended family survives fire, dust storms, cold and hunger, only to face a nastier enemy much closer to home.
