Über diesen Titel

 The Time It Never Rained helped convince the Western Writers of America to declare seven-time Spur Award-winner Elmer Kelton the greatest Western writer of all time. Forged from Kelton's 1950s observations of drought-ravaged West Texas, this compelling novel tells the story of one rancher's struggle to maintain his independence despite the swirling winds of change.

For decades, Charlie Flagg has eked out a living by raising cattle and sheep on his modest Texas ranch. Hardworking and old-fashioned, he distrusts federal programs that claim to help struggling farmers and ranchers. But as rainless years continue and others sell their souls for federal handouts, Charlie finds himself under increasing pressure to compromise his principles - and surrender his freedom.

The story is simple - it's the details and the insight into the main characters thoughts that make this incredibly interesting to listen to. And the narrators voice is simply perfect - it's so fitting to the character and just relaxing and suiting. It's one of these books - when it's over your sad you won't hear more about the characters life...

Hear it again and again every couple of years.
