The homecoming. [large print] Earl Hamner.
When Clay Spencer fails to arrive home at the expected hour on Christmas Eve of 1933{608} his family is concerned. The older son{608} Clayboy{608} is dispatched to find his father. On his journey through the snowbound Virginia hills{608} he experiences a series of hazardous{608} touching{608} and hilarious adventures. An encounter with the neighborhood Negro church teaches Clayboy a lesson in race relations and{608} while taking refuge from a snowstorm{608} he is overwhelmed by the intoxicating hospitality of two elderly genteel lady bootleggers. Finally, at midnight, when all hope for him has been abandoned, Clay Spencer provides a surprising climax to the story, and in a single moment illuminates the triumph of the human spirit.
