Beschreibung
Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch by Alice Caldwell Hegan Rice is a heartwarming novel set in the poverty-stricken neighborhoods of Louisville, Kentucky. Written in a realistic and humorous tone, the book follows the life of Mrs. Wiggs, a strong-willed and kind-hearted widow struggling to make ends meet for her children in the early 20th century. Rice's descriptive storytelling captures the everyday struggles faced by the working class, shedding light on social issues of the time with empathy and wit. The novel's mix of humor and pathos makes it a standout example of American realism literature. Alice Caldwell Hegan Rice was inspired to write Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch based on her own experiences working with the poor in Louisville. Her background as a social worker and her deep empathy for the less fortunate shine through in her vivid portrayals of characters like Mrs. Wiggs. This book is recommended for readers interested in historical fiction, social commentary, and heartwarming stories of resilience in the face of adversity.
