Thursday's Child and Other Stories consists of seven stories about people who grew up in the 1930s and 1940s in a small town in northeast Alabama. Reading the narratives involves a bit of time-traveling, but it's not nostalgic. It's more about a world carefully observed. The people are real, both in relation to their strong points and their intriguing flaws. The detailing is engaging.
