Providence and hard work is a journey back to the golden era of the fifties as seen through the eyes of Caleb Morgan, a strikingly handsome, poor farm boy from rural Mississippi. Caleb arrived at the exclusive Marston College in 1955 driving a '23 Model T pickup. He soon became the brunt of everyone's jokes, appearing somewhat slow because of his deep southern drawl and naivety. Caleb's dream was to play football at Marston College, although he had never played before and become a teacher. He soon fell in love with the campus beauty; however, she wore an engagement ring and a mysterious air of sadness. Caleb secures employment at the local country club, tries out for football, and begins classes, making a fool of himself at every turn. Ready to forsake his dreams and return to the cotton fields after becoming the victim of a cruel prank that nearly cost his roommate's life, Caleb gains the attention of Dr. Marston, the most affluent man in Mississippi and owner of the prestigious country club where Caleb works. Dr. Marston is so impressed with Caleb's humility and integrity that he takes Caleb under his wing and begins making secret plans for Caleb's future. Caleb's fortune began to change after that day, and in time, the campus goat became the campus' "Golden Boy." The education he receives is a far cry from the one he expected. With its wry humor and endearing characters; Providence and Hard Work will tug at your heart strings.

ONE OF THE YEAR'S BEST BOOKS The Wall Street Journal • Slate • Kansas City Star • Flavorwire • Policy Mic • Buzzfeed “Necessary Errors is a very good novel, an enviably good one, and to read it is to relive all the anxieties and illusions and grand projects of one’s own youth.”—James Wood, The New Yorker The exquisite debut novel by the author of Overthrow that brilliantly captures the lives and romances of young expatriates in newly democratic Prague It’s October 1990. Jacob Putnam is young and full of ideas. He’s arrived a year too late to witness Czechoslovakia’s revolution, but he still hopes to find its spirit, somehow. He discovers a country at a crossroads between communism and capitalism, and a picturesque city overflowing with a vibrant, searching sense of possibility. As the men and women Jacob meets begin to fall in love with one another, no one turns out to be quite the same as the idea Jacob has of them—including Jacob himself. Necessary Errors is the long-awaited first novel from literary critic and journalist Caleb Crain. Shimmering and expansive, Crain’s prose richly captures the turbulent feelings and discoveries of youth as it stretches toward adulthood—the chance encounters that grow into lasting, unforgettable experiences and the surprises of our first ventures into a foreign world—and the treasure of living in Prague during an era of historic change.
