Book Review of The Hollow Ground

The Hollow Ground
njmom3 avatar reviewed on + 1420 more book reviews


The time is the 1960s. The place is the coal mining towns of Pennsylvania. A hostile environment and family dysfunction set a very sad and depressing tone for The Hollow Ground by Natalie S. Harnett. Yet, eleven year old Brigid emerges as a strong main character who elicits emotion and sympathy, and the history presented is a very real one. Definitely not an easy read, but definitely a worthwhile one.
