A Time And A Place: Short Stories

The fourteen short stories in Betsey Barber Hampton's collection, A Time and a Place, offer a fresh new voice in southern fiction. Hampton, who began to write in her eighties, brings her charming perspective to coming of age in North Carolina in the mid 1900's. Like Hampton's acclaimed first collection, Full Circle, these stories reflect an innocence and humor unique to her personal experience. Hampton draws unforgettable, often feisty characters from memory and family history, with an emphasis on the importance of generational continuity. All her stories leave the reader satiated with a feast of riches, yet hungry for more.
