このコンテンツについて

Bestselling author James Lee Burke tells his most thrilling and insightful story yet through the eyes of fourteen-year-old Bessie Holland.

At the beginning of the 20th century, as America grapples with forces of human and natural violence more powerful than humanity has ever seen, Bessie Holland yearns for the love that she has never known. She finds a soulmate and mentor in a brilliant but tormented suffragette English teacher, who inspires Bessie to fight the forces of evil that permeate her world.

Watching the vast Texas countryside being destroyed by an oil company and a menacing figure with a violent past, Bessie is prepared to defend her home and her family. But when she accidentally kills an unarmed man to defend her father Hackberry, she must flee to New York. There, her older brother introduces her to boys who will grow into gangsters, but as children admire and respect Bessie’s spirit and fortitude as she is cast into a gangland that yearns for justice and mercy.

A welcome return to the beloved Holland series and populated with characters both radiant and despicable, Don't Forget Me, Little Bessie is an epic story of a remarkable young girl who fights against potentially overwhelming forces.

批評家のレビュー

"Amanda Stribling juggles a gentle-sounding Southern character, a dangerous redneck, and a Northern gangster in Book 5 of Burke’s Holland Family Series. At the turn of the 20th century, 14-year-old Bessie Holland faces a violent and racist world. She figured out her father was dating a madam and that the local sheriff was trying to run her teacher out of town for being gay—and worse, a suffragette. Burke describes the family’s oil business and its workers in a blunt realistic manner. Bessie fights the forces of evil and accidentally kills a man while defending her father. She flees her Texas home for New York City, where narrator Stribling has the opportunity to embody a myriad of stark and dangerous personas with assurance and empathy."
