Alden’s Reviews > My Southern Journey: True Stories from the Heart of the South > Status Update

The first section of this book, titled “Home”, was such a refreshing breath of nostalgia. This section reflected on Bragg’s childhood and his family influences in particular. This was such a fun moment for me because of the way my experience so closely resembled his. As he spoke about shelling peas on his grandparents front porch, I could see myself doing the same with mine.
